The Spiritual Path

I have been to the top of lesser mountain, they were okay, the view was a little cloudy. I have been to the bottom of of deep gorges - it was not that bad, there were yellow weeds in the shadows, a trickle of water. It is thought that the pleasant valley is the place, but of course, that is where we all hope one day to comfortably die. Other’s struggle to the highest peaks, yet if they have anything to say, it’s just: “The struggles was too long, and the summit disappointing.” The ones that did not struggle, took no path or journey, nor sought to travel anywhere, they alone know the Way.
