Wandering along life’s highways decisions many abound, where to turn, which route to take, to take one destiny bound. But oftentimes it isn’t until we take a different turn, one oblique to mainstream currents, that we actually begin to learn the true meaning of our journey, the adventure takes us on, and boldly canvassing territories one never would have known.

So count each moment as a blessing, the wrong way leads you home, back to where you started, but wiser for the sojourn. And on your way back home you will rediscover for the first the essence of all you’ve experienced, and the reasons for your thirst.

To take the straight and narrow may keep you on the path, but this well-trodden journey lies barren and overrun with cheap art. Take a stand, and carve out freely your own true road ahead. Take heed to tread thus lightly for fear you might in turn create yet another mindless way for others lacking will to follow you in hope of glory without the effort made of fill.

For each and every one of us has a chartered course unique and just to self, and ultimately rewarding, amply well. The moment you lose your way you know you’re in unchartered territory and free to roam and learn about just what it is to be at peace and joyful in the moment, of child-like disregard for all the form and manner with which we’re herded into a cattle yard.

Be not the sheep who toes the line, neither cause a raucous there, merely be yourself and venture forth without despair.
