Just what that missing something is can be hard to determine and can take many years to discover. This I believe is why we eventually start out on our spiritual path not knowing what we are looking for or where we are going.
It
can take a lifetime to realise that there is something more we need before we eventually,
even begrudgingly, start out on our search. Once we make that decision to head
off down our spiritual path we soon discover that every person we meet along
the way is our teacher. We discover too that every situation, good or bad, is a
lesson we need to learn.
Our
whole life is in fact a journey along life’s path but until you do it
consciously you don’t realise you are on a spiritual path back home. The moment
this happens you start to notice the teachers and lessons they are bringing to
you. You realise that until you learn those lessons you will be faced with more
teachers bringing you the same lessons over and over till you do!
All
paths are valid ways to guide us back home and no one way is better than
another. Everyone’s path is unique and doesn’t need to be the same as anyone
else’s. What is right for one person may be wrong for someone else, so never
compare yourself to other people.
The
one thing we must do is to love ourselves above all else. Once we start to do
this we can then see others as love and start to remember that we are all
connected. We are all one.
