Life Is A Journey

Life is a journey through many terrain
From gardens of pleasure to deserts of pain
From an ocean of love to a jungle of hate
From mountains of glory to canyons of fate
There's a highway for joy and a highway for sorrow
A road for today and a road for tomorrow
So choose your path wisely and walk with care
If you follow your heart, you'll find your way there
I've been to the garden and planted seeds there
I've been to the desert and felt the despair
I've swam in the ocean and drank of it's wine
I climbed up the mountain to touch the sky
I went to the canyon and started to cry
I've traveled both highways,
Both today and tomorrow
I've basked in the joy and wallowed in sorrow
My path has been chosen and
I've walked it with care
I followed my heart and I'm on my way there
So I'll just keep walking till I find what I'm after
To mountains and oceans and
Gardens of laughter.

The Great Creator did not put a single one of us on earth to be all by ourselves. Life is a journey. Journeys are made easier when they are taken with others. Way back in Old Testament times, the Israelites had many journeys. They traveled in large groups. The early American Indians traveled from east to west together. Nearly every Western movie I ever saw depicted groups of people making their journeys by wagon trains. If your journey has become difficult, look around you. Have you wandered off from the group and find yourself traveling alone? Human beings do much better on the journey of life when they welcome others into their "wagon train" and each one puts to use their special gift. Like the spokes on the wheel of the wagon, each one supports the others.
The single factor that makes communities like "The Woods" so wonderful is that many people are making the journey together!
