Journey of Depth

10 June 2009 No Comments

“Only the shallow really know themselves.” — Oscar Wilde

The journey of consciousness, of mysticism, is to come to know yourself and your own motivations and intentions. Our shallow minds can only take us so far. In order to explore ourselves, get to know ourselves, get to know our own lives and what makes us tick- or makes us happy- we have to eventually break down (fall) and purchase a flight ticket to the island of “me”.

The journey of life is a journey of depth because life is intricately complex. May I join you? May I help you leave the superficial journey to travel along a journey of meaning, self-awareness, hope, knowledge and wisdom?

Today, leave shallowness at the door before you walk into a room of self-realization. It’s easier for you to know yourself when you are as shallow as a stream. Only the shallow really know themselves.
