What one looks for outside turns out to be present inside, but only to be discovered after a long detour of seeking externally, in all the wrong places...in a process of gradual reversal, the return of what moves forward in the shape of a circle, in which the end meets the initial point of departure.

There are no choices that are really a detour that will take you far from where you're wanting to be -- because your Inner Being is always guiding you to the next, and the next, and the next. So don't be concerned that you may make a fatal choice, because there aren't any of those. You are always finding your balance. It's a never ending process.
