There are certain lessons
you can only learn through living

It was never about perfection
or getting it right

Your job
is to show up
to the practice
and bear witness
to what arises
on the path into
the great unknown

The challenge
is to meet yourself
with curiosity
questioning
what you thought you knew

All along the way
you’ll have to choose
the next right step
on a nonlinear
spiraling path

And each time you face
a lesson you thought
you’d already learned

You’ll be invited
to surrender
to the journey
and find compassion
for your process

Remember this
courage one:

You don’t walk
the path alone

There’s infinite expansion
in the practice

And perfection
was always
a dead-end road
