The Fallacy of Our Beliefs

The road taken is not as straight and, Narrow as we think but a, Huge mountain that we must climb. As in life we have many journeys, That we must take. The sun brings hope in the future, Showing us the way. The moon holds my dreams and, Fantasies within my soul, Showing me what is within reach. The sun and moon inspire our inner, Beliefs into our presence of mind, Of how we perceive ourselves. Knowing this we experience the, Twist and turns in these journeys, Realizing what we believed is not true. Is it conceivable to understand, Everything we believed is now a lie, A fantasy, or just in our imagination, That we dream about. Is this the fallacy of our Beliefs??

Hello Shirley, yes we all have these mountains to climb. Right the roads are not always straight or narrow. We all have a journey to go through. A road with aq fork in iy and we must pick the direction we want to go. If blocked we try again. Hugs.

Hello Shirley, It would be interesting to find out if you took that road. No one knows if our life would be better or worse. Yes I also think it is the hand we are dealt with. Yes you must make the best of it. Your welcome my friend. Hugs.

But the view from high....most definitely breathless. Reminds me of the Grand Canyon. Thank you
