When that thing pops up on your path, you need to ask yourself whether it's an obstacle, a stepping stone, or a hurdle.
Some things are there to stop us. There may be a way around them, but they stop us for a time and cause us to think and reevaluate. Maybe this isn't the path we need to be on. Maybe the way round will take us in a new direction that we hadn't thought of.
Some things that look like a bump in the road are actually a means to the next thing. They help us over difficult terrain, giving us some firm ground to move over.
Or maybe that thing in your way is a hurdle to sail over. It proves to you that you can do more than you think.
I'm loving all the lines and contrasts in your journal page, as well as in your thoughts. May we quickly discern the difference between the three states of mind, and may they be as lovely as your page!
