We have no idea how much we do for our hearts and minds when we embark on a journey of self-discovery and freedom.
Each of us has a different path to take to their ‘Uhuru.’ Though we may keep each other company and cross paths, my path can’t lead you to the end of yours.
Each of us has different shackles to loosen to set us free. Each of us has many rivers to cross, mountains to climb and time spent in the valley.
What I’ve found is that once you’ve chosen to walk into the light and positivity, then begins the joyful results of freedom.
Freedom is not a result that comes idly. Freedom is a consistent journey of the mind and it’s in that process of finding your freedom that you truly become free.

So I think I just learned a new word: Uhuru. Does it mean “freedom” in Swahili? I Googled it but want to be sure.

That’s a nice way to put it. You’re right, of course. We all have our own path to take in life. I hope in mine, most of the mountains are really more like pleasant hills rather than the Himalayas. 🙂
