Jan. 23 - Intent


A man walks down a path into a forest. The foliage is dense. He looks side to side but only sees thick green shadows, many shades and shapes.
So, he focuses on the path, the brown line that leads him on his way.

He listens but can only hear himself think. Thoughts of the day which had past. Thoughts of his ideas for the future. Yet in between all these thoughts he pauses again and again to connect with the path for this is his guide. Instinctively as if it had no bearing on his journey the path leads the way.

The man looks around again but seeing no change loses focus.

The path remained.

His feet strong and steady on the path, some might say mindlessly.  

But it was with INTENT that he took each step.

His thoughts of past and future fading into the NOW where he found his strength, his power and his confidence.

INTENT UPON THE PATH

For his steps met solid ground as his thoughts met no judgment.

His steps met solid ground although his eyes had no clear vision

His steps met solid ground as his ears found no distraction.

Allowing, trusting – knowing, believing

INTENT

In the now he found his way and came out the other end.

And all his dreams, they flourished there, for it was meant to be.

His intent was clear. His intent was true. He simply walked along the path and his intent had led the way!
