Song of the Open Road – read it, for your own good.

An inspired and inspiring flow of insights and views into the true processes of finding one’s own truth.

First published in 1856. Some excerpts:
From this hour, I ordain myself loos’d of limits and imaginary lines.
Going where I list, my own master, total and absolute.
I inhale great draughts of space. I am larger, better than I thought. I did not know I held so much goodness. All seems beautiful to me.
Whoever denies me, it shall not trouble me. Whoever accepts me he or she shall be blessed and shall bless me.
Wisdom is of the soul, is not susceptible of proof, is its own proof.

Find the poem on the internet….it’s there in several forms.
It’s about the special inner gladness and expansion that each of us knows and has known we want and are capable of having and being.
