A New Path
Walking down the road of life, potholes are encountered, requiring a slight adjustment in path. Usually, I go around them, but occasionally I bravely jump over them, landing safely on the other side . I see small pebbles and stones, obstacles expected and dealt with. There are boulders, huge deviations in the road requiring major alterations in life’s path. There are twists and turns which take me in a new direction, unexpectedly. These frequently cause concern, as going back, retracing footsteps an impossibility. Quite often they prove beneficial over time. Steep hills require an enormous amount of energy to climb, but once reaching the top, the downhill slide seems so easy. Rain and snow can make travel slow and difficult and progress takes patience. Ice may break my footing and give me a new perspective. Long periods
of doubt
will occur and I question whether or not to go on. But what else Is there to do besides trust and keep walking? |
