Pilgrimage Pt II

                Pilgrimages are such an important and almost essential part to one's growth in life. In order to find who we really are or truly aim to be, most people do not just sit down and think about it. Most people go out into the world and explore, experiment, and live until they enjoy what they will live forever with the most. People find themselves much easier and faster and simpler by going and DOING. By going and BEING. Almost never have you heard some amazing story about someone's life journey that started out with, "So, I was just sitting on my couch when I continued to sit there, and then amazing things just started happening to me." Maybe in fairy tales, dream books, and bedtime stories, but not in real life. In real life, which much of America has learned and taught others, it is hard work and almost nothing is handed to you. You work and work for decades upon decades and still may never succeed. However, finding yourself is easier when you are pushed and motivated by none other than......YOURSELF. You must know what you are doing, maybe not where you are going, but have some direction, some sense, some knowledge. Lean towards what you want to happen and if it is not meant to be then it will not succeed, you will know for sure, and you will move on and find what is best. This story goes into detail many times about specifically documented researches of pilgrimages of many religions, races, genders, et cetera. It helps that each and every word is pure and sincere and moves the program along as to show the raw sincerity of the wilderness, "real world," way of living. The sharp pings and pangs of life do not just go away, because you face them head on in the wilderness of a pilgrimage; sometimes alone and sometimes in the comfort of a community. Things happen and people get over it and people do not and the world moves along. It is somewhat of a cruel cycle in life, however it is one that we all get use to and move along with for the sake of flow and purity. You are welcome.
