Write the Journey

The time that my journey takes is long and the way of it long. 

I came out on the chariot of the first gleam of light, and pursued my 
voyage through the wildernesses of worlds leaving my track on many a star and planet. 

It is the most distant course that comes nearest to thyself, 
and that training is the most intricate which leads to the utter simplicity of a tune. 

The traveler has to knock at every alien door to come to his own, 
and one has to wander through all the outer worlds to reach the innermost shrine at the end. 

My eyes strayed far and wide before I shut them and said `Here art thou!' 

The question and the cry `Oh, where?' melt into tears of a thousand 
streams and deluge the world with the flood of the assurance `I am!'

                                                                          - Rabindranath Tagore

An inner journey results in more than a destination. Its own triumph could become a work of art. The individual on this journey searches for awareness. Writing assists the healing, strength, wisdom and peace.

Creative Write: Investigate a journey of faith in the self to discover its gift.
