SELF-REFLECTION JOURNAL PROMPTS
Through the vast earth, rough seas, and unpredictable volcanoes, we’ve trekked – with and without support, in community and in deep solitude. We leave our place of comfort on a daily basis – hopeful, seeking…seeking a brighter and lighter way forward.
The journey is long and full of lessons, ups and downs, yet we never know where we truly are in this mysterious marathon. At times, we slow down long enough to take a deep breath and observe our surroundings.
Every time, we glance, we see something new but are still surprised by our ever-changing environment – wondering when and how did this all happen? Is it due to the mysterious feat of evolution?
Whether we notice or not, we’ve been evolving along with the environment. The primary question is how have we evolved.
Along the journey is a lesson or lessons, depending on your will to surrender, regarding how and why people pop up in our lives as well as how and why opportunities appear the way they do.
A brief interaction can be as impactful, if not more, than a lengthy one. Opportunities to soften our hearts and heal are everywhere. Intersections can occur anywhere – while commuting, running errands or a business, volunteering or spending time with your loved ones.
Perhaps, the last few years have given you a chance to reflect on a deeper level.
A funny secret is that whether that person or experience offered sweetness or a bitter aftertaste, was conscious of it or not, intersected with you – to enrich your life. You’ve had opportunities to do the same in your journey.
