I would like to share some thoughts and observations from my awakening:
There are no coincidences.
We are connected to every one that we meet.
We are connected to every thing, event or otherwise whose path we cross.
The value of the connection is predicated on the attention given to the connection.
One affects what one is connected to.
Prayer affects the connection.
There is no goal to achieve, nowhere one must go.
It is the steps on the path that have all the value.
Each step has potential infinite value.
To add value to a step, one must take it with intent and with the purpose of honoring creation. There is no place for ego in honoring creation. Truth is what matters.
There is no time. Actions now are what matters.
When one values all one's connections, intentionally takes each step, and each step is taken as an expression of honoring creation, in a single moment everything changes.
Markers along the way affirm that the steps one is taking accord with the truth, that is, taken further to one's expression of honoring creation. These markers do not have to be physical, such as an object or sign. They could be anything.
