Journey of Life quotes speak of journey as a metaphor for life. They remind us to focus on each precious moment of that journey, rather than looking toward the future. Joy does not come at the end of the road, it is available now, while you are walking your path. To come to the end of the road is to die. Live your journey. Celebrate it. Our true journey begins when we are ‘on purpose’. Have you discovered your passion and purpose? Pick the road that is right for you and enjoy the journey!
Focus on the journey, not the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it.
Greg Anderson

It may be when we no longer know what to do, we have come to our real work, and that when we no longer know which way to go, we have begun our real journey.

Stephen Covey
For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin-real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong.

Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
You don't create your mission in life - you detect it.

We may run, walk, stumble, drive, or fly, but let us never lose sight of the reason for the journey or miss a chance to see a rainbow on the way.
Gloria Gaither
Say not, I have found the truth, but rather, I have found a truth. Say not, I have found the path of the soul, Say rather, I have met the soul walking upon my path. For the soul walks upon all paths.

Susan Jeffers
Listen to me. We're here to make a dent in the universe. Otherwise why even be here?

Some stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what’s going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity.
Gilda Radner
Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle. The world you desired can be won. It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.
Ayn Rand

Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will find them gradually, without noticing it, and live along some distant day into the answer.
Rainer Maria Rilke
The only journey is the journey within.
Rainer Maria Rilke
The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.

What I know for sure is that your life is a multipart series of all your experiences- and each experience is created by your thoughts, intentions, and actions to teach you what you need to know. Your life is a journey of learning to love yourself first and then extending that love to others in every encounter.
Oprah Winfrey
