Journeys —my life and yours.
It is the journey that matters at the end…
The journeys we take differ from each other, but there’s no way to compare as we all lead different paths.
OUR LIFE IS OUR JOURNEY
Journey can be interpreted in many different ways by different people. But focusing on the philosophical point of view, life can be seen as a journey. We travel in life through the years, facing various scenarios and incidents, but our destination is all the same.
The way we start and the way we end, are the same for every individual on Earth. But it is the period between birth and death that makes a journey, an interesting and unique one. It is all very overwhelming when we think about our lives and reflect on our actions, but it is what it is. Some things we can’t have a hold on, but we have to go with the flow. It is all part of the journey. Good and bad things are a part and parcel of life and we have to accept it.
Louis L’amour says a journey is time suspended…
…It couldn’t have been put better. The flow and ebb of time coexist with essence of a journey. We all have different timelines. We all have our own rhythms and speed to do things. One might complete their education in their twenties but some in their old ages like the sixties. A few might start a family while in their teens but others might start in their middle ages. There’s no way one should conform to only one particular form of life. We all have our own patterns and we adapt to them at our own paces. The journeys we take differ from each other, but there’s no way to compare as we all lead different paths.
Life is a journey that have a lot different paths, but any path you choose use it as your destiny. ― Ryan L Leonard
AND HENCE, ENJOY YOUR LIFE TO THE FULLEST
We’ve heard the saying ‘Life is a journey’. It is very cliché to sound. But when thinking about it, it all makes sense. In life we forge relationships, achieve great things, face even more failures, meet so many people, visit so many places, learn whatever that our surroundings has to offer, and just a repetition of all these things. It is very vague and at the same time, very specific. But all these activities we do, all these things that happen to us, they make a journey and that’s what makes life interesting. Above all these, it is integral that we always remember to enjoy life to its fullest. The very point of a journey is to live it and experience as much as we can from it. It is not about the destination, it is about the journey. Go crazy and have fun. That should be our mantra. We live only once, right? Too many clichés in this essay but very important.
“It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end” — Ursula K. Le Guin
