We more often blaze our own trails instead of following the path God has put before us.
Time they say heals all wounds
No, it's passage kindles gloom and doom.

Which is it then the future holds?
That depends such knowledge untold.

God's plan is not the leisure life
But moments of joy, sorrow, elation and strife.

Moments together braided one strand
Our life, with meaning, how magnificently grand.

Be careful not any one moment magnify
Focus on a part, your life you may deny.

The path of life so misunderstood
Thought a leisure walk through the cherry wood.

A walk indeed tis it is
A journey more accurate is life's quiz.

Each on his journey separate and apart
Connected each other by the love in heart.

A choice a decision for me to make
The path determines the amount of ache.

My attitude my perception defines each day
These moments my life before me lay.
