About This Quote
In this way he used her as the North Star on a journey where you always want to go south. It was helpful, aligning himself in this way. It gave him something to tune to, like a violin to a piano. The idea of the North Star guiding the way is very old and deals with direction and faith.
As we know how hard it is to get around the world and navigate our lives, we should try to use something that is known and steady like a compass to get us through life. People who use their faith and trust in God and other people's faith and trust in God for better or worse are called "Seekers" or "Pathfinders". The idea of using someone or something to get through life can be seen everywhere in literature.
Even in our modern society, business plans often use the idea of the North Star as a guide.
