"Finding Your Own Way"
"Until you become aware of and connected to your source, soul, and spirit, you may rely on your connections with others to feel secure and stable. But when you understand from where you came and who you are, you can walk the path you were meant to walk, majestic in your solitude." As Albert Einstein said: "I am truly a lone traveler and have never belonged to my country, my friends, or even my immediate family with my whole heart; in the face of all these ties, I have never lost a sense of distance and a need for solitude, feelings which increase through the years."
----From the book "The Way of the Fertile Soul" By Randine Lewis. In this holiday time, remembering this, when you are away from family or do not yet have one of your own, or a significant other, or do not have one nearby or even more so if you are with them, that you are in heart, truly more connected to them by connecting to your inner essence, your spirit, your peace, as the holidays can be stressful for all of us whether alone or with family. Self-reflection can be meditative and help us remember the true spirit of Christmas amidst friends, family or alone. God Bless.
