Future Journey

It has been said, "Life is about each step along the way." 
In the very busiest of lives, we can still only go one step at a time. It depends on how those steps are perceived as to where we will find ourselves. Are we going through the motions just to get the day over with so we can do something else? Are we dragging our heels every step so we don't have to do anything else? I believe the motivation behind the steps is what constitutes our lives. We can be motivated by pain and woundedness which causes alot of potholes and speedbumps. We can be motivated by greed and the need to have all that we can get which also causes a great deal of pain. Consciously, we think we have very good reasons for what we do, so we go speeding through life at the rate of a rocket ship and take no thought of what the actions of one step can do to us, our families and friendships. This is where the delimna lies. Do we continue on in the journey we have started already or do we sit for a moment and let our minds go free to see if something bigger than us is happening within this world and reach out and touch it?
