The Path
When all there is, is upIs the path easier to find.
To appreciate the finer things
That one has never had.
Which path would you follow
The tried the true or new.
The comforts of your home
What is familiar to you.
The opportunity is often missed
Don't let the chance go by.
Live your life to the fullest
Luxury doesn't always apply.
Do the things that have meaning
To your spirit and your name.
And when the time has passed
You can smile you've won the game.

I loved this post! Choosing the right path is always difficult, and then it's always wondering if it's the right one, or can you go back?
This has given me a lot to think about!
It seems we always know what is the right path but we are suckers for choosing the wrong one!
Love this! Printing it out as a daily reminder- keeping up with the Joneses doesn't = your best life.
this is a really lovely piece...and great wisdom to chase what gives you life!
beautiful. I'm guilty of far too often staying with the tried and true. I am eager to just bust out and try some more new things that no one can see me doing!
gorgeous.
Awesome.
Reminds me of the quote: "If the path you are taking is beaten, it's not yours."
Love this - thanks for sharing! ;o)
