It is good to have an end to journey toward, but it is the journey that matters in the end.
Every day is a journey, and the journey itself is home.
The journey is the reward
I failed the LSAT. Basically, if I had not failed, I'd have been a lawyer and there would be no Spanx. I think failure is nothing more than life's way of nudging you that you are off course. My attitude to failure is not attached to outcome, but in not trying. It is liberating.
There is no black-and-white situation. It's all part of life. Highs, lows, middles.
The right way to wholeness is made up of fateful detours and wrong turnings.
A door that seems to stand open must be of a man's size, or it is not the door that providence means for him.
Like everyone else, I was born naked and screaming, waiting for my life to write itself on my skin.
It is all here. You make the choice.
In reality, we are all travelers - even explorers of mortality.
God lets everything happen for a reason. It's all a learning process, and you have to go from one level to another.
You don't have control of the car, but you can drive it. Life takes you where it wants you to go and where you need to go.
Life is the train and not the station.
All of us have a path to follow and the path begins on earth.
Our battered suitcases were piled on the sidewalk again; we had longer ways to go. But no matter, the road is life.
A fate is not a punishment.
But one must go where one's road leads, even when it's a distressing road.
Always the journey, never the destination.
The trouble with us is that we expect too much from the great happenings, the unusual things, and we overlook the common flowers on the path of life, from which we might abstract sweets, comforts, delights.
All that we were has led us to where we are, but tells us little of where we’re going. Memories are a weight you can never shrug off.
The journey is the treasure.
For the warrior of light there are no ends, only means. Life carries him from unknown to unknown. Each moment is filled with this thrilling mystery: the warrior does not know where he came from or where he is going.
Isn't everyone just travelling down their own road watching the signs as they go?
Never judge a journey by the distance.
We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend.
