A Long Road Home


I dont know who looks at this but if you do you have gotten glimpses of the twists, turns, cracks, and crannies along the way. I briefly get a glimpse of the present path I am standing on and recognize it just has to be part of it regardless of how wrecked it looks. Sometimes there are roadsigns sometimes I wonder if I lost the trail somewhere along the way, but the further I go it is increasingly lonely and uncharted. I often question if it is worth it and then the sense of adventure and curiosity gets the best of me, saying, "If I just go a little further what if I turn back and I miss out on the best part." So here I find myself again one foot in front of the other hoping I am going about this in the right way. "New roads; new ruts." G.K. Chesterton. So will I make it to the end will I find what I am looking for? That I still cannot answer but I can't resist the opportunity, here's hoping I never can.
