Summary

One way to deal with the constant, terrifying changes in all of our lives is to choose the worldview of a pilgrim—someone who doesn’t see life as a series of fixed positions but as a continuous, fluid process or journey. The journey itself is not what’s most important—it’s the way that the journey changes you that matters. In this episode of Bewildered, we’re talking about how to live your life as a sacred pilgrimage, let yourself be guided, and allow the journey to write the story of you. Join us!

0:01.2	So in this episode of Bewildered, Roe and I are going to talk about our constant stumbling
0:07.5	through the world as a pilgrimage, as a consecrated way of moving through our experience
0:16.3	that changes us more than we will ever change it. Yeah and like so so qualities of of a pilgrims life are like
