No Turning Back
Picture this
Your on a winding, slithering road called Life
Up ahead, you see a fork in the road
You cannot make out the wording on the signs yet
But you notice the vast majority of people following the paved road to the left
Every once and a while
You see a person split off and walk alone down the dirt road to the right
A few moments pass and the wrighting on the signs become ledgible
Elegantly arched over the left road are the words "Who Society Wants You to be"
On the other road, the sign is much less graceful
Crudely handwritten on a cardboard sign leaned against a tree are three simple words
"Who You Are"
Nestled between the two roads is a third sign that states "Who Are You?"
That's up for you to decide what road you go down
Just make sure it's the right one
Because once you go down a road, theres no turning back
