“Scenic Route” or “Direct Path?” - A Love Note From The Universe
You’ve probably heard the saying: “Some people take the scenic route. Others take the direct path. Both get you there.” But let’s be honest—what does “there” even mean?
In life, we’re all headed somewhere. Maybe it’s healing, self-discovery, love, abundance, peace… that big, juicy dream your soul signed up for. And how we get there? That’s where the real magic (and the real mess) unfolds.
Some souls (maybe like yours?) chose the scenic route. You know—detours, rest stops, cosmic coffee breaks, relationships that cracked you open, careers that didn’t make sense until they did, and spiritual awakenings that felt more like spiritual avalanches. Others might appear to hop on the express train to their dreams with no traffic and perfect hair. But here’s the Huna truth bomb: There’s no wrong road.
In Huna, There Are Many Paths…and All Are Sacred
Huna teaches us that the world is what you think it is (Ike). Translation? Your path is sacred because it’s yours. Whether you’re meandering through a jungle of emotion or launching forward like a rocket, every moment is alive with purpose if you’re willing to see it.
Another Huna principle, Kala (there are no limits), reminds us: even if you feel “off path,” you never really are. Spirit’s GPS has infinite routes recalculated at light speed. That ex who shattered your heart? A scenic guide in disguise. That job you hated? Soul school.
We just forget that delays, loops, and zigzags often hold the deepest codes.
The Scenic Route Isn’t a Detour—It’s a Devotion
Let’s play with this for a moment. Imagine your Higher Self planning your life like a road trip. You’re sitting there, mapping it all out: “Okay, let’s stop in Self-Doubt for a few years so we can remember our worth. Then we’ll drive through Grief Canyon—it’s tough, but the stars are incredible there. Oh! And let’s definitely do a soul-activation hike in Uncertainty Forest.”
You laugh, thinking, “Wow, I must be really brave to sign up for all that.”
And Spirit just smiles. Because you are.
Taking the Direct Path? That’s Sacred Too
Some people move with laser clarity. They feel a nudge and follow it…fast. It doesn’t mean they’re skipping lessons. It means their soul chose a different rhythm. And if you’ve ever had a moment where things aligned perfectly, where you just knew, and doors flew open with ease…that’s the direct path whispering, “Yes, love, now.”
Both paths are about presence.
Whether you’re climbing the mountain in sandals or gliding on a magic carpet, the invitation is the same: be here now. Feel it. Learn from it. Celebrate it. Bless it. And for the love of Huna, laugh a little. Life is not a test—it’s a playground.
The Wisdom in the Wandering
The beauty of the scenic route is that you collect stories. Soul wisdom. Depth. Compassion. You become someone who can hold others in their journey, because you’ve been there. You know the terrain. You’ve cried in the rain and danced in the sunrise.
You learn that joy is not a destination, but a way of traveling.
You realize Spirit is in every pothole and rainbow.
And eventually, you stop asking, “Am I there yet?”
And start whispering, “Wow… I’m here.”
Wherever You Are, You’re Exactly Right
So whether you’re looping, leaping, resting, or rerouting—trust the path. You are not behind. You are not lost. You are becoming.
Take the long way. Take the shortcut. Pause. Breathe. Dance. And know that in the eyes of Spirit, it’s all the perfect way.
Because you? You’re not just on the journey. You are the journey.
With scenic love and soulful starlight,
Sanctuary Within Healing
