#5 - A poem to say what you seek, seeks you too
In this episode, I read - "A Walk" by Rainer Maria Rilke. Oh, what a beautiful poem this one is with one of the most powerful metaphors ever. It transforms a simple walk into a journey toward what you seek or need. It says the destination is not an inanimate distant point, but aglow with a light that calls you, encourages you to follow the path. It talks about how the journey transforms you, and a revelation about all journeys in the process - Journeys imbue us with courage and validation for they call us with an inner light. If you are feeling low and unhinged, this is the perfect poem to lead you back.
