Re: What does Avalon mean to you?
If i am wholly honest to myself its a distraction. A means to stop me letting go and fulfilling my potential. Validation for the part of me that keeps making excuses.
If i look at some of the people i would nominate as role models: sir ranulph fiennes, ray mears, Ellen MacArthur; I see myself getting caught up in things that don't matter.
Saying that though, i enjoy it. I thought i had strayed from my path a few years ago, until i realized there is no straying. Life is the path, whichever way you play it. There is no right or wrong, there is only experience. I seek comfort in that when i think i am spending too long in one place and it consoles me. It brings back choice and the freedom to choose a new direction.
also, if you haven't guessed, i am more spiritual in my direction. I visit places such as this forum to give me a different perspective, a more grounding ( sometimes ) point of view.
