Travelling


Just because there is no destination in sight,
that does not mean the road is not worth travelling.

Chinese Proverb


I love this quote. It has got to be one of my all-time favourites; my mantra even. When we lived in Godmanchester, we had a silk wall hanging I bought in China with these words written in beautiful Chinese script.

It makes so much sense to me, on so many levels. And as far as my insomnia goes, the destination had never been in sight. Okay, so I might, unsurprisingly, be hoping for improved quality sleep at the 'end' of all this. But there have been so many bends and curves along the track; speeding ahead only to hit a brick wall and then to go into reverse. But I do often think, now more than ever, that my sleeplessness has not been one of those things that has just 'come about'. It's been trying to tell me something. It still is.
