The map to our future, stems from the past. That is our blueprint. If we look closely, we can see all the roads and avenues that we have crossed and missed, in our haste to get to the future. We find a moment that is not what we hoped it would be, and try to "move forward" further into the future so that we avoid the current surroundings, feelings and lessons that we are faced with. By "forwarding", we are ignoring our true path. Our true path which only we, as individuals can discover.   We need to discover all experiences for ourselves. If we were to stop and ask directions, to our life path, this may delay us in getting to our actual destination. The same as if we were to take a back street, and by-pass all the essential ingredients, that were to take us to our evolutionary point of completion.   We know what we must do within our hearts. We have done this throughout many lifetimes, how can we not "know" how to do this now? It is inbred into our soul. Our soul does not change, it remains the same. As time progresses, more is added to it, in order to develop more fullness, and more streets and avenues, with which we have travelled.   Your lesson, is to enjoy each day and each hardship as it comes. Think of it as an exam you have to pass. Once passed, you can enjoy much achievement and accomplishment for yourself and the others around you, and perhaps if you were truly selfless, you could show others the way too.
