There may be many paths, but the goal is the same in each. There is always the easy way or the hard way of reaching the goal. There is the direct route or the devious route which leads up highways and byways before getting there. The choice is always up to the individual. You are absolutely free to choose your own path. Therefore seek and follow it, even if in the end you realise how much time you have wasted taking the devious route when you could so easily have taken the direct one. Do you know where you are going and what you are doing? Do you know that you are in the right place and at peace within yourself? It is important that you search your own heart and find out, for you cannot give your very best when you do not feel you are in your rightful place doing what you know you should be doing with joy and love. 可能會有很多條道路，但每一條的目標都是一樣的。要達到目標，總是會有容易的或是困難的道路。有直接的路線，也有迂迴的路線，會帶我走過大街小巷，在我達到目標之前。選擇總是在於個體自己。我有絕對的自由去選擇我自己的道路。因此尋找並跟隨它，即使到最後我意識到我浪費了多少時間在迂迴的路線上，當我可以如此容易地選擇直接的路線。
我知道自己正去往何方嗎，我知道自己在做些什麼嗎？我知道自己在對的地方，並且內心感到平和寧靜嗎？搜索我自己的內心並找出這答案是很重要的，因為我無法給出我最好的，當我並不感到我在對的地方，並且帶著愉悅和愛做著我知道我應當做的事情時。
