The road less traveled....

I love that poem ... And I took the road less traveled.   But today, it just doesn't hold the same meaning as if did before.  You can never truly know what lies on the  road ahead of you, yet you choose the path and it's direction everyday.  When you wake up and decide your going to reach out to a friend or family member you haven't seen in a while, just because.  Or when you wake and decide hey it's Saturday, I just gonna get back in bed and watch old movies all day.

The decisions we make everyday no matter how big or how small determine length and width of our path.  What we can't control, or choose, are the directional decisions of others.  And when their path crosses, invades or cuts off our path, we are left feeling either confused, blessed, wounded, relieved, loved, or unwanted.  

   Then there are the "bumps" in the road.   What does that mean anyway?  Do "bumps" in the road, or on our path necessary indicate a bad thing?

     I wonder what road lies ahead of me today?  I've learned very recently that what path we think we're on, isn't always the path we are on.  And it's definitely not the path we should be on.   

  Walk your path today knowing that god has made way for you.  He's filled in the potholes, removed all the rocks, sticks, fallen down trees, and smoothed out all those "bumps".
