You Have No Choice Really

A spiritual path is a journey that gives you peace of mind and happiness. You will start it when your system is ready to start it, and once you are on it you will know it, because at that stage you will have no choice really. Yes, you can delay it, but not really, because once you know that you are headed towards a certain destination, it just doesn't make sense any longer to drive into the opposite direction. A spiritual path is exactly like parenthood, there are more than one occasions when you scream "Why would anyone sign up for something like that?" But then, as you stand at his graduation or when she gets married, tears are streaming down and everything you remember as you reflect is bliss, devine bliss. Yesterday someone asked the question in my spiritual Personal Development for Smart People Forum why anyone would sign up for a spiritual journey like ours and the response that came back from everyone was, yes, there is peace and happiness along the way, but most of all, we didn't have a choice really!
