You do not have to understand everything before you begin.

You do not have to be fearless.

You do not have to know how far the journey will take you.

You do not have to be ready to look at everything.

You only have to find the place where there is willingness.

It may be a question.

It may be a discomfort you can no longer ignore.

It may simply be the quiet sense that there may be another way.

That is enough.

The rest does not have to be forced.

One layer.

One question.

One moment of seeing.

At a time.

The reward may not be waiting somewhere at the end of the journey.

Perhaps it begins the moment we become willing to take the next step.

Sometimes, that next step is taken alone.

And sometimes, we choose to be accompanied.

Where Do I Begin?
