The one thing I learned while driving across half of the United States is that the answers are already within you. I’m going to go out on a limb and add the word “always” to that notion. That’s not to say that you can’t receive encouragment from outside (Jeff) or wisdom (Julie) or unconditional love and support (Lynn). And then there old fashion listening (Luis). All that is there, and all that is real. However, when you go looking for God, the Universe, or some other bolt of lighting from Above…well, just like a lightning strike, half the power and the energy comes from some place on the Earth. That’s what I learned: whatever exists out there is in “here,” as well. I sort of knew I already had my answer. What I needed was the peace and the quiet to listen to my inner voice, my higher self. A little cabin in the woods helped, but it was always mainly about me.
