No one knows
where the road will lead
once you give yourself
to the mode of living.
But when the road runs away
and your life is less yours
than the wind and the storm's
remember
that every part of life
is a piece of who you are
and nothing
can make you less
than what you want to be.
Author notes
Let your steps fall where you want them, and the wind be ever at your back...
