The Road Less Traveled



For the road less traveled, it's not for the faint of heart
For those who choose to play it safe and never stray too far
Me, I want to live my life and one day leave my mark
And it all might come together
And it all might come unraveled
On the road less traveled.

~George Strait

~~~

I need to really think about this. 
What kind of life have I led so far? 
Have I played it too safe? 
What mark have I left/will I leave? 
What is the footprint I am creating through my living? 
And the footprint I ultimately leave behind...
Will it help or hurt this world of ours? 
~
And now I must go to bed. 
I have taxed my brain way too much for one day!

    Looks like a nice road....maybe it should be traveled more often :-) Great photo with the light!

    Can we see that again in a few weeks when the leaves have turned? I'll bet it's stunning. :)

    Lovely photo, and lovely thoughts. You're making me think, Annie. What kind of mark am I leaving on this world?

    Those are my favorite type of roads - those less travelled. The quiet ones - where the only sound is the leaf falling to the ground.

    I want to leave less of a mark too. Perhaps it won't make any difference in my lifetime - but I'm hoping it will for those still to come. Recycle - replenish - renew.

    Wonderful! Love that sheen on the road, together with the disappearing curve!
    Cheers, Klaus

    I think you are leaving a mark, and the world is better. But those are good words for anyone to ponder and be reminded of periodically.
