The Journey

Our desire is always to be satisfied.  It's instinctual.  It's the reason monarch butterflies fly 1000 miles to their breeding grounds in Mexico and blue whales swim around the planet.  

Often times that desire puts us on a journey, much like migratory animals. To get somewhere more satisfactory we go through difficulty with empty pockets and carrying heavy loads.  Whether that's pursuing a college degree, traveling the world, or being committed to a relationship through the ups and downs.  Sometimes we take that journey and forget what sent us on our way in the first place.  What was that dream?  What was my desire to take this journey in the first place?

More often than not it's not about the destination at all, it's about having a good reason to take the journey, and something that gives us motivation to enjoy it.   You never know what life is going to be like once you get there, so all you have is the step you're taking right now.  Let's go on vacation for  a while!
