Last week, I was listening to a live talk on the Noom Vibe app by podcaster and Recovery Mentor, Martin Jon Garcia. He does the "Tao of the Day" and you can pick a number between 1 and 81 to get the Tao of the Day. I went up as a guest on his live and it was such an encouraging talk that challenged me. I picked the number 7 and this is what MartinJon read to me:

#7 – The Wisdom of Not Having Preference

Tao is infinite.

It doesn’t grow old or tired.

Because it has no preference for itself. 

It can always persist.

The master puts her self last

And always finds herself first. 

By being detached from preference.

She can give herself to what is

And find fulfillment there. 

I broke down crying because this spoke to me as I just want to “arrive” already. Some days I want to forgo the journey and be in a place of complete healing and be like those people who are so eloquent and who are in a much better place. But like they say “the joy is in the journey” and detach yourself from this idea of “arriving”.
