Many paths lie ahead
You ask, which one to take
At your heart’s leading
One step, you make
Feels right
Feels wrong
Feels good, or bad
The road, for sure —
Almost never certain
Obstacles along the way
Hurdles that make you stumble
Mountains so insurmountable
Landmines of life —
Pain, discouragement, despair
Stand firm
Two feet on the ground
Look upwards…then inwards
There is hope, strength — and
The ground
Still beneath your feet
Steady your spirit
And step again, forward
Because you can
When your feet
Are firmly on the ground.
