Decisions


Complete darkness. Sounds from every direction. Which way do you go? Or do you continue to stand still? Do you pray for light or hope that those sounds lead you to the safest path. What if you go the wrong way? Can you turn back? Do you want to turn back for fear of wasting more time? Make the best of it? Do you stay or do you go? Scared to move or scared to stay? Run toward the noise or gently tread to the quiet. The road less traveled, more or less. You hear these noises telling you to follow their paths but you know you want to create your own. What to do you do? Open one door then realize it's the wrong choice? Turn back around or make the best out of the decision you made? Don't choose a door and just stand still wasting time while everything moves around you. It's like you see your surroundings moving in fast forward while you're stuck to the ground. Stick with the door you opened until a better door comes along. Wait for the light or make the best of the dark? You'll never know what's the best decision to make until you make it. Can't be afraid to step out on faith. Fear is only in the mind. It only scares you if you let it. Follow your heart, find your happiness. Trust your decision!
