“Disturb life’s common structures. Do what people thought you’d never do and smile when they can’t believe that you are even attempting it. Jump on that train, quit your job, go to the next border and take your next pilgrimage. Fall in love with a very different Life and learn the sweet sound of lonely roads, smiled-at strangers and walking homeward in no hurry, maybe eve just in time for the sunrise. Sell your closet and your many gathered trinkets, and gleefully give the proceeds to any & all nearby in need. Do this today, and then wake up tomorrow and do it all over again … You have to live your life, and you have to re-create your life by living it. And know that there is no ready-made path on this Higher Trail; know that you must make that path by walking it. It is not so cheap or easy, to reach to the ultimate realization of perfect Truth. Indeed, it is just like the denizens of the heavens: the birds fly, and yet they don’t leave any footprints. And though you cannot follow them exactly (for they leave no footprints left behind) you can leap and spread your own wings, and soar for others to see.” ~ inspired by Charlotte Eriksson & Osho
