Moving along the road less traveled, the inner road to yourSELF, can seem pointless and seem like nothing has changed, until you glance in the rear vision mirror to notice how far you have come. The road is like a spiral, so old issues and problems often recur, but as the tools and knowledge of consciousness, observing and being with unpleasant emotions, learning to BE present in NOW more and more; when these old patterns resurface, they are integrated much swifter. The inner pain can feel as intense but it often is transmuted faster. Over time when noticing how far you have come you will sense a deeper inner lightness, an ability to see life from higher perspectives and less emotional reactivity to situations. Enjoy the knowledge that you have made great progress. You will note that you are more peaceful, kinder, more compassionate and more forgiving. Celebrate any progress.
