Leading a Life
It does no good to think about roads that we don’t follow.
The ones we take are filled with life, the ones we don’t are hollow.
The past can be a vessel that we fill time and again
distracting us from drinking draughts from the life we’re in.
Regrets are petals thrown upon a river rushing past.
Better to exhaust our funds on flowers that will last.
A person always looking back is one that must be led.
A more proactive pose to take is facing straight ahead.
The Prompt: The Road Less Traveled––Pinpoint a moment in your past where you had to make a big decision. Write about that other alternate life that could have unfolded.

Reminds me of my “on the road of life” shot. Maybe that’s the way it really is 🙂

Thanks Kathryn… My friend who also has access to my blog as an administrator found and corrected the same item. I appreciate comments on typos, by the way.

I love to read your words. You make me think about the day ahead of me and how I will approach it. It reminds not to regret about the adventures I didn’t take but to begin to plan for the new ones.
Thanks.

You strike me as someone who definitely knows how to live in the present, Anna, but I know what you mean. It doesn’t hurt to be reminded and cheered along now and then. When whatever in me that writes these things writes advice, I’m advising myself as well!
