“In the middle of the journey of life I came to myself within a dark wood where the straight way was lost.”
- Dante Alighieri
Often in life, we awake and find ourselves alone in a wilderness. Navigating dark nights of the soul, papering over cracks where there should be none. We’re lost and lonely, telling ourselves that nothing’s wrong, that nothing could be wrong, that everything we could possibly do to reach our potential is done. And still…
Here in the still loneliness of wilderness, we can’t ignore that a part of us has awoken. The soul has stirred. It sings, softly at first, whispering a simple refrain:
‘There Is Something More’.
The mountain is as the mountain is. The mountain does not change, only I can change in relation to the mountain.
A quiet sound initially, but then more and more, the song of the soul becomes a roar impossible to ignore. The profound feeling of emptiness we felt before starts to feel treacherous. Wildly, we search for answers from within the abyss, entering Courageous Conversations until finally we find the voice - not in the void, but in the great mountains around us.
This is your true self speaking to you, communicating with you, your deepest truth. There Is Something More.
The mountain calls.
Come and find yourself in the wilderness.
Let’s breathe together into existence.
