The Road Less Travelled

Every time I set my heart on doing something, things sprout up like horridly fertile beans; opening the option to sway sideways.

I chose road A, but unknowingly, i'm being siphoned to road B.

Unwittingly, I’m doing a right turn. How beguiling life can be; Shrouded by a invisible mysterious power beyond my mortal comprehension.

Or so i thought.

It might not always be glaringly apparent, but I do believe there are certain lessons that need to be learnt. Certain people I need to encounter (though some need to be slapped and spat on, others are worthy of praise) . Certain losses I need to ache over. And certain moments I can reflect and remember for the rest of my waking life.

Threading across new frontiers, I’m releasing a breath disguised as a sigh. Gently easing the pent up emotions and immersing myself in the moment.

I’m straightening out the convolutions. And relishing it all.

Whilst the rest of the worldly population propels forward in their quest to fulfill destinies, I’m slowing down and savoring the moment. It’s a going to be a big step for me. A zone I once threaded on thin ice. Only this time, my guide will be totally different. And I’m stronger. Wiser. Filled with courage.

I refuse to be weighted down by the past. I learnt. And I will have the power to move on. Somehow, it feels like my soul's been salvaged. Can this be the joy freedom brings?

I will be unafraid. I will be free.
