Crawling toward love

I just read this in The Morning News and though he is talking about being a new parent, I think it applies to my program:

"It’s a distracting business, life. There are so many paths we can take, so many forces buffeting us, and it’s hard to stay on the straight and narrow. But the fact is that there isn’t a clearly marked, well-paved road—there’s just a direction, and anything we do to keep headed that way will be just fine. The direction is toward love, toward helping and sacrificing and supporting and caring and just plain being nice to people. Keep your eye on that compass, and no matter how you stumble and even if you have to crawl, you will do OK."

Toward love, that is what jumped out at me. I have decided that my HP is love, so maybe that's why it resonates with me. I also like the "no matter how you stumble" part. I was reminded again in meeting last night that I really do need to move forward in my program. I need to finish step one and move on or I could become complacent and lose the serenity I've found.
