The River

The cycles that exist in every one of us become a journey that we accept regardless if we are aware of these patterns. Seeing the truth of existence in our lives can lead to a variety of different paths that we may or may not have complete decision over. Many scholars question whether life is fate and we are along for the ride or if we make our own destiny. This seems like an impossible truth that almost all humans strive to reach but can truly never be answered with in our own life time. We are natural beings living in a world bound by rules that guide us to our destination. The path which we walk on has many directions that all lead to the same result. We become completely aware of our surroundings of our natural state of existence without awareness. It is part of the human experience to see the world as we see it naturally. We need not to fight to see our own existence because we live and breathe it in every day we walk, sleep or eat!

We live in a stream of water that is bound by physical forces and directs our flow of life according to the natural laws. Even when one fights this flow of nature we are still going through it without realization.  The forces that bound us to this existence are closely tied to breath. We breathe voluntarily and involuntarily all day long without asking why. We are life because we act upon our natural state of being. This flow of direction that we all live by becomes one with everything we experience.

When I walk towards my destinations I may think about where I have to go but it is part of the process of moving. I sleep because it's part of my river and I eat because it gives me energy to swim in that river. Living is part of my existence and without it I would cease to exist. Without being thankful to my surroundings I am in constant joy of existing without my own awareness of happiness.
