The road goes ever on and on...

Where is your road leading? Down a lane such at this or a hot dusty path?
Do you see the next bend or does it seem to stretch straight on to the horizon?
Are you prepared for whatever comes by on your way?
What is your help?
Where is the spring for water? Where does your food come from?
When other paths cross yours, will you turn aside?
If other travelers meet you, as they follow their paths, will you invite them to travel along side you as a welcome companion?
And when the winds come and blow in your face, will you close your eyes and smile or will you squint and complain?
What is your greatest fear along this way?
What do you hope to find at the end of the road? Why are you traveling?
