Path Chosen


Do we chose the path we are to travel in life or is it chosen for us by the circumstances that happens along the way to adulthood? My path more or less chosen for me. Today, I find it too late to take the other fork in the road without causing too much pain, so I endure. We are supposed to guide our children along the way hoping to instill in them the values of goodness, the values of what is right and wrong, but at the same time giving them the freedom to make decisions on their own. Guiding them but letting them chose their own path either right or wrong it will be the path they choose. Loving them unconditionally, being there with open arms to hold them, giving them a shoulder to lean on, and always a gentle hand to wipe away the tears. Along your path there will be many twists, bends you cannot see around, or forks you may want to venture down, try them all. Don't settle for what is expected. Choose your own path.

Woe, sorry but I don't have David's email address. You can leave him another note in his comment section and explain what happened and he will help you I'm sure. He is nice and very understanding.

Tim, thanks come back to visit, your always welcome.

Hypoxic, thanks for the words, I'm strong enough to handle what the outcome would be for myself but the pain and hurt it would bring to others, never, my love for them is too great. Guess, I'm just one of the last good guys out there, always thinking of others.
