The Road not Taken

Life is a daring adventure or nothing...

I have to admit, I have never been this organized or driven towards a goal. Ever. I have never committed to a goal so wholeheartedly, nor have I wanted to do something so much I can taste it.

We all have and have had goals in our lives, big and small, that dream we have held so dear. We go through life chasing our dreams, keeping pace. Then, as time goes on we get distracted. We start looking around at the scenery and soon we have forgotten the chase.

That was my life. Caught up in the scenery, my dreams long forgotten, and one direction was as good as another. They all led to the same nowhere. Every once and a while, I would catch a glimpse of the dreams I had, like seeing the trees rustle as a dear jumps away into the safety of the foliage.

Eventually, the scenery bored me. It was nice, it was comfortable and stable, but I felt dead inside. It is time to chase my dream.
