For some reason, this post reminded me of a song by George Harrison (mind you, a lot of things remind me of George Harrison songs):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mePp1l299EE

Oh I've been traveling on a boat and a plane
In a car on a bike with a bus and a train
Traveling there and traveling here
Everywhere in every gear

But oh Lord we pay the price with the
Spin of a wheel - with the roll of the dice
Ah yeah you pay your fare
And if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there

And I've been traveling through the dirt and the grime
From the past to the future through the space and the time
Traveling deep beneath the waves - in
watery grottoes and mountainous caves

But oh Lord we've got to fight
With the thoughts in the head with the dark and the light
No use to stop and stare
And if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there

You may not known where you came from
May not know who you are
May not have even wondered how
you got this far

I've been traveling on a wing and a prayer
By the skin of my teeth by the breadth of a hair
Traveling where the four winds blow
With the sun on my face - in the ice
and the snow

But oooeeee it's a game
Sometimes you're cool, sometimes
you're lame
Ah yeah it's somewhere
And if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there

But oh Lord we pay the price
With the spin of the wheel with the roll of
the dice
Ah yeah, you pay your fare
And if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there

I keep traveling around the bend
There was no beginning, there is no end
It wasn't born and never dies
There are no edges, there is no size
Oh yeah, you just don't win
It's so far out - the way out is in
Bow to God and call him Sir
But if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there

But if you don't know where you're going
Any road will take you there


Yeah, that may be completely random, but maybe someone else will get a kick out of it. :p

At one stage, I was in a drive to reach there....whatever that means. I wanted to know what the end looks like. I was happy but yet unhappy with where I was. I created unnecessary stress. In the end, I realized that I need to give up the search for more, more and more. I now choose to focus on the here and now. It may mean not having all the answers to my questions. Then again, everything is well and in divine order.

I got to the end and found it was actually the beginning, so I went back to the beginning again and found it was the end.

In both directions, it was the journey and not the arrival that made the difference.
