What do you do
When the road ahead
Is neither familiar
Nor clear to the eye?
Do you take the road
You’ve always taken?
Or, do you continue
Down this unfamiliar road
Relying on the faith
That life will convey you
Where you are meant to be?
One poses the risk of reaching
Nowhere beyond the known…
The other, poses the risk
Of the new being disastrous.
If the roads that we walk on
Are paved by the decisions
We take every moment, every day
Trust in your ability to choose well
Existence tends to favour the brave
After all, life is also seeking
Self-discovery through you.
