Jack 9

When each day’s story ebbs and flows Meandering through life’s highs and lows Our limitations are what we impose That’s generally how life goes Free the mind and capability grows We look to ourselves and to others for the path to show But maybe it’s a journey that only God will know

Dear Tony, your poem is thoughtful and thought-provoking. Though we may follow a path, and hope the destination we seek will be found, we (on the inside) and random forces on the outside, have a way of creating detours and roadblocks, indeed, "That’s generally how life goes". Your final line says it all in this lovely contemplative piece. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
