Many of us step foot on the path to spiritual enlightenment expecting it to lead us onward and upward, hoping to become something better than we are, and ready to gather all of the important things we need along the way. What a surprise it is when we eventually realize that this path isn’t taking us onward but inward, that we’re not gathering things so much as letting them go, and that there was never anything more to aspire to than the truth of what we already are ~ Cristen Rodgers
In order to move inward we need to apply self-discipline as this will put us on our path of purpose and show us why and what we came to accomplish here on Earth. We need to awaken our conscious being which in turn will enhance our spiritual potential. A part of life is having attachments, but we need self-discipline to be able to detach ourselves. When we let go, we are releasing our need to control and releasing the conditional love that comes with an attachment so that we are able to love unconditionally. In order to bring Spiritual Balance to our lives, we must seek out our individual path and journey inward to find our True and Authentic Self. We need to enhance our power of detachment, for there lies the answer and to release and let go, for there lies the path to Inner Grace.
Even a single bloom, seemingly detached from its surroundings, still manages to celebrate its existence in Beauty, Color and Energy.

Yes, it is a tough journey but I find as I get older I detach myself more and life becomes much simpler and the journey becomes a little easier.

Along the “path to Inner Grace” is an awareness that everyday brings an opportunity “to release and let go.” Even when I think I have “let go” of so many things, something else shows up. 🙂 Thank you for stopping by my blog – I am enjoying reading through yours.
