The Road Ahead

The road ahead, opens up before me, suddenly, wide and wondrous and untraveled; The trees rise high, stretching, inching higher, touching the sky and unseen horizon. It is a blend of indescribable color, flowing profusely in the path along the way. The air is thick with the incense of fall, dry leaves and burning, outdoor fires hanging in the air. The scent is of a changing season, a bow, respect, a genuflection in awe of God's superior gifts. The roads less traveled awaits, setting in place a path, an unplanned journey to newness. Breathe in the color hues of reds, oranges, yellows, brushed and painted lovingly with all the signs of autumn. The scent of change, take the ride set by the hands of God.

DM, I like this Carpe Diem. You write so rich in the season. “Your talent is God’s gift to you. What you do with it is your gift back to God.” Leo Buscaglia
