Follow where life leads
Never be afraid to alter the course of life’s road.
There is no limit, no closed doors…
Sleep refreshes, a pause to rest
and plan to choose which bend to follow
when the morning begins, and the Sun rises
and shines on an original plateau.
Marking a line to North or to West implies no pact
to heed to the path of yesterday’s heading
to South or to East.Β Each life moment is unique,
and subject to reversal or alteration.
Never be afraid to turn around the itinerary
to embark on an entirely fresh way to go.

Good advice, nicely written, GMama.
BTW, a book I ordered for Mrs. Jim came today, “a Grandmother’s Prayers.” Free from “Our Daily Bread” people.

I think of it not so much as changing…as of evolving. Living life as it unfolds is the way to go. π

Sometimes it’s right to follow a chosen path, come what may … and sometimes that can become a straitjacket and cause us to be fearful of change. We need to be adaptable and prepared for the twists and turns of life, and wise to know whether to follow, or to strike out a different path.
