67. Opening the Kimono; From Believer to Seeker
It's been a minute since I was here in this space, and I wanted to share where I've been and what I've been keeping close to my chest. I no longer call myself a "believer" anymore, I am a seeker. This has been a deeply personal journey, one I take so seriously that I have held back from sharing here because I still feel so "in process," however, I've felt more and more that it's time for me to start at least TRYING to share where I find myself. It's never where I thought I would be, but I'm grateful for the journey that I'm on. I reference a poem in the episode and I've included it below. Thanks again for being along for this journey with me! I'm grateful.
Fear
By Khalil Gibran
“It is said that before entering the sea
a river trembles with fear.
She looks back at the path she has traveled,
from the peaks of the mountains,
the long winding road crossing forests and villages.
And in front of her,
she sees an ocean so vast,
that to enter
there seems nothing more than to disappear forever.
But there is no other way.
The river can not go back.
Nobody can go back.
To go back is impossible in existence.
The river needs to take the risk
of entering the ocean
because only then will fear disappear,
because that’s where the river will know
it’s not about disappearing into the ocean,
but of becoming the ocean.”
