Labyrinth of Life

Labyrinth  Of Life 
                    
When we are born we start the labyrinth of life, 
when we are very young our parents take the reins
but as you slowly grow up it then becomes your
own responsibility, we have only two roads to take
but we nearly always make the wrong choice
a stumbling block through life, when we choose wrong
we find our self in a maze or labyrinth, we then have
to solve our puzzled mind and find our way out.
These are life's ongoing problem to make sure our 
minds stay alert  as we strive to stay on the correct 
road to get to the next level of understanding, they
say you never look back, so the conclusion is to succeed
in what you are doing and pursue the impossible.
there is nothing impossible, however there are times
when they are improbable. This is the rule of the labyrinth
of life, can we rise to the occasion or fall behind at
the wayside. The ultimate test applies to all.
