Follow Your Bliss

Life is not a problem to be solved

but a mystery to be lived.

Follow the path that is no path,

follow your bliss.

If there were already a path,

it would have to be someone else's;

the whole point is to find your own way.

If you do follow your bliss,
you put yourself on a kind of track
that has been there all the while waiting for you,
and the life you ought to be living
is the one you are living.

When you can see that,
you begin to meet people
who are in the field of your bliss,
and they open the doors to you.

I say, follow your bliss and don't be afraid,
and doors will open
where you didn't know they were going to be.

If you follow your bliss,
doors will open for you

that wouldn't have opened for anyone else.
