Hearing that "Click" Along the Way

Have you ever assembled toys for children or Ikea furniture? Yes, you follow the instructions step by step, but it is really the " click" you hear that tells you whether everything is progressing according to plan. Walking the Tao is really like that, you hear a click constantly -  the sound of people clicking together: a steady love connection along the Path.

Deep down inside we act like a massive magnet. Attracting the people we love and the ones who could give us the opportunity to find that love connection. Once you are aware of this fact you can walk your entire journey surrounded by peace and love. And even if you aren't entirely able to do that yet, make this journey your aim in life and find how you have access to an infinite reservoir of energy to fulfill your mission.

Before we walked the Tao we also "clicked", but it was a different kind of attraction, more sporadic, more passionate, more hit and miss. You tell yourself that you are happy and fulfilled, yet deep down inside you probably know that you are restless and unfulfilled, even if you find what you are searching for. Subconsciously you in fact search for the Tao even then, it is just that you happen to look in the wrong places. One day, perhaps when you encounter yet another frustration, it suddenly clicks. You see the red threat that others before us have described right in front of you. And from that day on there is no turning back. Even with your eyes closed you could perceive the Way, you just follow the clicking sound of two hearts joining each other.

Sure it is a learning process to stay connected. Mistakes along the way are natural, but playfully your soul sister will come along and tell you that you put your foot in yet again. Lovingly you will apologize and try anew. You can't miss love once you look for it, the magnet is way too strong to miss.

You love the people who surround you and you love your mission in life, your gift to the world. Both connections necessitate each other and they feed on each other. Your soul siblings already know what your mission is and they will guide you there. For us it is sharing the Way with others and we feel that whenever we do, peace, grace and light surrounds us. Stay silent for a moment. Do you hear that "click" we talk about inside of you? Could it be a project you start today, a new friend you can reach out to? Follow that magnet and find how much stronger it gets with every step along the Way.
