Driver's Seat

On the road of life there are intersections, allies, and side streets chat exists when you look hard enough, 

Instead of focusing on what lies ahead. 

Weather you decide to turn or keep between the lines 

you are always in control.

 

Because in the long run fate will always be the destination, 

but freewill will forever be in the driver’s seat.

Nice piece of brevity here.. hopefully we stay
on the main road ..having free will drive a well
chosen course..avoiding those side streets and
alleys .fate will be the summation of it all..our
destination.....Nice Work...

If there's anything in life we should appreciate it's freewill. We can thank modern society for that. There was a time not so long ago when freewill was rare. Religion or race, class or status determined how much of our will could be free. I always find wisdom in your poetry. All that rock and roll must have wizened you.

That's an interesting typo, I think it's a typo. Chat exists when you look hard enough?

In the driver's seat. The coveted spot. The freedom of the open road and the weight of a path chosen. Hopefully followed by satisfaction from our arrival.

Seems each of us have a unique "view" of the paths we choose and the whens we wander them. Even backseat drivers choose where and why they sit.

thank you for the input

The wonders of freewill. How it can function on its own. And how fate doesn't do anything and just sit and wait what freewill does. They're like ill tempered twins with different persona. What’s dangerous about freesill though is that it gifts us just as much opportunity to be stupid as we do to be smart.

This is a familiar topic you got here but always relevant and interesting, written in a most precise mannner.

So true whatever happened is for good, happening is for good and will happen also will be for good, not my words borrowed from Mahabharata great religious classic in Hinduism in it says Sambhavami yuge yuge whatever supposed to happen will happen we just travelling thinking our free will in driver's seat but not having full control of the destiny. Wow! to this poem.

"fate will always be the destination,
but freewill will forever be in the driver’s seat."

Sage and cogent words.
