Poem on Incarnation

I just found this poem by Wendell Berry (from Collected Poems)

And the world cannot be discovered by
a journey of miles,
no matter how long,
but only by a spiritual journey,
a journey of one inch,
very arduous and humbling and joyful,
by which we arrive at the ground at our feet,
and learn to be at home.

Inner Lent is a journey of one inch. In the last few weeks what of your Inner Lent Journey has been arduous? humbling? joyful?
