Journey Veins

The veins of the human body are amazingly intricate and complex, much like the thoughts, behaviors and emotions of the human being. Our individual journey through life is a unique passageway anchored by a beginning and an end. I've come to learn that the true test of growth and learning, comes from the recurrence of situations and scenarios that originally pushed us into pivotal directions; which led to the connected passageways of alternative realities. The way in which we deal with those deja vu moments, helps us measure whether we've truly learned, healed or made the necessary adjustments that were needed. If we find ourselves in the same familiar place internally or externally, then we know there's more work to be done. Each significant event in our lives connects us to other significant people or circumstances, good and bad; leading us to destinations that impact everything connected to us. These journey veins make up our very existence and are responsible for our quality of life, our legacy and our impact on others. We have to take on the heavy responsibility of how our path impacts others connected to us, even if we wish we'd never met those people.

The very feeling of "regret" means a deep imprint of that person or situation was felt, and has been pressed and joined to the other lines attached to our network of life experiences. Experiences that were formed and sculpted by our reaction to them, with the purpose of identifying a gap within ourselves that must be filled, repaired or destroyed. Once mastered, we pass through into the next direction and elevate into our next web of life events. We must keep track of where our journey veins began and where we want them to end, then work backwards, consciously making deliberate moves to get the ending that we desire.

Follow the maze of your development. Note the dead-ends. Note the patterns and habits that seem to habitually resurface. Make note of whether these patterns hinder you; or get you to where you desire to be. It's difficult sometimes to admit where we are flawed. Those veins that don't seem to connect properly can cause us to detour into a direction we are not supposed to go in. We have to be active participants in our growth and vigilant with those areas that require self improvement. We can't take every situation personally; because we can only control ourselves, not other people, who themselves have their own journey veins to travel through and grow from.

As life courses through your connected pathways, remember the signs to decline. Accept your responsibility and contribution towards conscious self improvement and deliberate personal success.
