~A Journey Taken~
Its all unknown
That is how it is
As blank as a page
You lay the rules
Of where and how to begin
A curvy line for a starting point
Or with letters that creates words
Probably meaningless at first
Yet as you jungle deep
The picture forms a shape
Your steps are taken in assertiveness
The course is clear now
Somehow it all makes sense
As you turn around
Towards the taken journey
Every step taken it’s been worthwhile
“How many of us turn around, towards their past experiences and take a relief that whatever experiences lived its been worth while. Turn around and look at your journey and say to yourself it was a long journey but you made it and head to a new exploration appreciating every step that you about to take. Remember that not all the steps are easy to take. As your journey the course, it’s no denying that you have come from a long journey.”

yes nothing happens in vain... everythign that happens to us leaves us richer... it really depends upon us as to how we view it. :)
such a beautiful thought and I think it is up to each one of us to look at the journey we have taken as a negative or a positive one.
A long journey, indeed.
I do not remember most of it but I am what happened so I need not remember, I guess.
Thanks for this poem, it brightened my day.
Nasra: I adore You. You're a Delight.
