Forks and Highways

There’re forks

Not just one or two

But many it seems

 

They stand alone

Yet are all intertwined

All staring at me

 

I know I need

To go only one way

But fork requires a decision

 

I’m not only not sure

Of which way to go

But of which for to start at

 

And one fork

May not effect another

But it also might

 

So if I choice to start here

Will my decision be partial

To what I want there

 

And yet there’s a part

That turns around

And wonders if all this is right

 

It looks like highways

Each running into each other

Then going their separate ways

 

I have to start somewhere

I can’t depend on others

I need to do this myself

 

I pray I start with the right one

I pray I make the right choices

I pray for guidance

 

I see the forks

All standing alone

Yet intertwined together

 

There’s not just one

But many

All screaming to me

. oh ... i have been in this place ... you have expressed this dilemma so well ... sometimes, it's just so difficult to know what to do ... there are too many options and all seem like they have potential ... once when i was facing this situation, i just waited patiently for clarity of thought because i had time ... another time, i didn't have time ... so i tried my best to choose the best path ... i did make a wrong choice ... and had to change my path later ... but i learnt a lot from making a mistake ... i knew through that mistake exactly which kind of path i should not choose ...
