ღ The Greatest Journey in Life ღ

In the words of St Augustine (399AD), Man travels 100's of miles to gaze in wonder at the broad expanse of the ocean. He looks in awe at the heavens above. He stares in wonderment at the fields and the rivers, the mountains and the streams, and then he passes himself by without a thought, the most amazing creation. 

I love this quote, not for its religious overtones, but in the simple truth that we spend our lives searching and seeking the outer beauties of creation, sometimes going to the other side of the world to behold them; forgetting that they all are a projection from within our own Self. 

The real beauty is within; the real love is Self Love, and when we see that beauty in ourselves we can easily see it in each situation, person and place in the Now. We need not journey a hundred miles, because the heart of the Universe with its Infinite Beauty and Majesty is just an inch away.
