Footprints

You are wondering which way to take your life and worrying about your family, your career or your purpose. Here is the answer: follow whatever brings you closer to the divine.

Look for what genuinely feeds your soul, because that is the road you are meant to walk. But make sure you understand what that means. The ego has an excellent way of getting you to dream up get-rich-quick schemes. The truth is always consistent and loving. Hold to the knowledge of your soul and concentrate on the passion in your heart, your talents and your interests. That is how you head the right way.

Verse
Do I go here, or do I stay?
Children? Art? A cat all day?
Ego, no. You hold your tongue.
Divine help leads me right along.

Other meanings
Do not let anyone pull you off the road you have chosen. You have an important decision to make. Always choose the road of peace and happiness. Do not look at what you do not have. Listen to your inner counsel. You are on the right road.
