Pathway in Life

Pathway in Life

A Poem by Willard Wells

Everyone in life has a journey.

each one is held accountable

for the path that is chosen

and taken.


But what if the details

and information are wrong

as you decide on your path

that will lead you through life.


Influences as we grow,

help guide us to find

our path for the future

life that we will lead.


The details for some

are sketchy and not clear,

which makes the choice

not as clear as we might like.


Clarity of thought

and idea are what we need

to make the correct choice

as we choose our path in life.


Mothers, fathers and teachers too,

all give influence to guide our way.

But in the end no matter what is taught,

it falls to each of us to choose our path.

We are destined to a path but how we weave it so that travel is smooth or there are obstacles depends on our own actions.

My words for find my way could be the same for this poem. It's not always clear if we are on the right track and that makes it easy to make decisions. However, each much follow his own path. :) Rudi

Or...when walking through life as you come to a Y in the road, turn to the RIGHT instead of wrong. We make our own bad decisions. Valentine

We me free to make choices in our life and can only hope we make good choices for ourselves and the one's we love. Better to teach happiness and love than hurt and pain.
