It’s not the destination (of seeking the truth) that creates our dignity or integrity, it’s the journey. From Messages From a Grandfather, by Robert Gately

About This Quote

It is not the goal that matters, but the journey. The journey does not end, as it can never end. The purpose of life is to make the journey as meaningful as possible. In life, we are faced with choices and circumstances that have a direct impact on our lives.

We do not have all the answers and if we think we do, we will stop learning and progress will slow down. Our individual journeys are unique and free of comparison to others.
