As one stops looking for what appears to be missing, one merges into what already is. In essence, to slow down and turn inward enables you to notice a serenity and understanding that grounds you where you are. How does perspective shift to sense that regardless of what is happening around you, within all is well? From the moment nothing bothers you, all that is irrelevant falls away.
"Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors where there are only walls."- Joseph Campbell
