Stillness 6-12

try going around it.

The symbol of the Mountain often shows up in our lives as an obstacle or, at the very least, something that needs to be ascended or conquered in some way. But you have the freedom to choose a different way. You can go around the problem, finding perhaps a longer but more pleasant journey by doing so. Perhaps right now it’s not so much about the ascent but letting the mountain be the mountain and your journey be a journey. In other words, if you’re dealing with a situation that feels as though it’s blocking your soul’s longing, find a different route. Or if someone  seems to be in your way, go around them. You don’t always have to be climbing to get ahead.
