WALKING MAN
"The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." - Lao Tzu
I was recently in Kentucky with family and had some interesting experiences. I was driving to my sister’s house on a stretch of highway where there were no houses. A man was walking along the roadway. My brother who was with me said, “There goes the Walking Man.” My curiosity got the best of me so I asked what that was all about. He responded that he did not know why but the man can be seen at all times just walking, most of the time in tattered clothing. No one knows if he has a place to live or if he is homeless in a place where homelessness is a rarity. All that is known is that he seems to be on a journey. Life is a series of journeys. Some are short and sweet, while others stretch before us, seemingly endless. Often, we look at the path ahead and feel overwhelmed by its magnitude. How will we ever reach the destination? Every accomplishment, no matter how grand, started with someone daring to begin. That first step isn’t about having it all figured out—it’s about deciding to move forward despite the unknowns.
Dear Angels, the journey of our dreams starts when we gather the courage to take that initial action step. There are no coincidences, so whatever is our path, the destination is the journey.
Dear Ones, it’s natural to feel fear or doubt at the start of something new. What if I fail? What if it’s too hard? These questions can paralyze you if you allow them. But remember, fear only has the power you give it. Focus on the now, the step right in front of you instead of the entire journey. Can you take that one step? Of course, you can. Every small action is a victory. Each step builds momentum, and with each movement forward, fear begins to lose its grip. Each step brings lessons, growth, and new perspectives. You’ll discover strengths you didn’t know you had and find beauty in places you never expected. It’s okay to stumble or even take a step backward. Progress isn’t always linear, but every step matters. Trust the process and know that the road is shaping you into the person you’re meant to be. Whatever dream or goal has been whispering to your heart, today is the day to take your first step. You don’t need to see the entire path; you only need to know the direction of your heart. As you begin your journey, invite the support of the Divine. So take that first step. The journey of a thousand miles awaits, filled with possibilities beyond your imagination. And remember, the destination isn’t the only gift—the journey itself is a blessing. You are capable. You are ready. Take the step, and let the adventure begin.
Dear Angels, thank you. I love you. Namaste y’all.
Today, I promise to keep stepping forward on my adventure.
