The journey of life gives us no choice but to accept that it is full of ups and downs. If the journey was meant to be smooth-sailing, nature would have provided no space on earth for things like the mountains we must climb or the rivers we must cross or the dark valleys we must walk through.
The challenge for mankind is that we all want to have the good things on the mountain without having to go through the pain of climbing it. We all desire to possess the riches in the land across the river without experiencing the hardship that goes with crossing it. We all dream of experiencing the peace and tranquillity of a valley without the patience to walk through it.
In the journey of life, our real mountains, our real rivers, our real valleys are inside each one of us. They are not physical. They are not visible. They are not touch-able. However, they are changeable. They are moveable. They are relocate-able. You can even make them disappear altogether. They are spirituals.
However, as we make our journeys through life and living, we will come across their counterparts in the real world. These are the natural mountains, the natural rivers, or the natural valleys. They are physical. They are visible. They are touch-able. We cannot change where nature has chosen to place them on the surface of the earth. Therefore as individuals, we have very little control over them.
What nature has kindly given to abundantly is the natural ability to use our invisible mountains, the untouchable rivers or the non-physical valleys that reside in each of us to control their counterparts in the real world. This awareness can help us overcome any obstacles that come our ways as we make our journeys through life.
