Grateful to life

Life has gone through a whirlwind of a change in the past years. It is strange and beautiful at the same time, and is, most certainly, your biggest guru. The most important journey one can embark on in one's life is the journey to the self. Slowly yet passionately unravel yourself, discover who you are and life becomes richer and more meaningful. It is what Joseph Campbell  would probably call 'a hero's journey'. More often than not the path to this discovery is difficult, you have to constantly step out of your comfort zone, struggle, get thrashed, fall, learn and stand up again. But the process of growth has always been a process full of struggle. You have to file your rough edges and constantly increase your tolerance to friction, but you come out finer and more glorious in the end- wiser, braver, tolerant, in control and victorious. At the end of the day, no matter how ugly was the initial battle, you stand taller and all you feel is just supremely grateful for it all!
