The Desert Is Different For Everyone


This final blog in a seven part series we’ve written on the desert experience.

Some of you have been wondering ABOUT those eternally successful and entitled souls who never seems to experience a desert.

But the desert is different for everyone.

In fact sometimes it isn’t heat and sand, some times it’s a million acres of swamp and mud.

You don’t always die of thirst in the desert; sometimes you drown in a vat full of indulgence and wine.

The desert can be physical or metaphysical, it’s inside of you and it’s outside of you.

Don’t be distracted by the lives of others, for they have their own steps to walk; just put your foot in the sand and take another step everyday.

    all good points. The desert and the journey through it is different for every person, but I guarantee you, EVERYONE has a desert to get through. There are no overnight successes(not with any staying power anyway), there is no one who has made it in their field without years of struggling and practice… and the best people at anything are the ones that I think never get out of their desert. If the journey is the work and the craft, you have to always be doing it right?
