Direction, Not Destination
By Anonymous
We’re all on a journey.
Or we should be.
Many of us have stopped,
And remain stuck,
Afraid of what
Might lie ahead.
Some of us are on a journey
Dictated by others,
In an effort to please.
As we embrace our own journey
Avoid the advice
To pick a destination.
Our journey is without end.
There is no destination.
But let’s not wander aimlessly.
We need to find a direction
So that we can make progress
And keep looking ahead.
That direction
Needs to be our own direction,
Not someone else’s.
It’s the direction
That fills us with excitement
And drives us
To keep moving forward.
When we find that direction,
We’ll be unstoppable
And make great progress.
Our journey will be without end
Because there’s so much to explore
And experience.
We’ll savor what we see,
But we’ll always be drawn
Beyond the horizon.
