journey.

If you are brave enough to leave behind everything familiar and comforting and set out on a truth-seeking journey, either externally or internally,

and if you are truly willing to regard everything that happens to you on that journey as a clue,

and if you accept everyone you meet along the way as a teacher,

and if you are prepared most of all to face and forgive some very difficult realities about yourself,

then the truth will not be withheld from you.
