The road that leads to nowhere
I have been struggling from daybreak to find a way to go through the gate. Every path that I take, it leads me back to the old broken gate. The pavement on the road looks fine so we venture out on the road of the divine but everything on the road was still and dust was rising up from the back of the hill. We venture on the road of the divine but the path to the goal was way out of line and so we wipe away the sweat from our faces and took a deep breath, we adjust our steps and kept going.
Morning rise with the sun by our side and nature as our guide, as we journey on the road of nowhere conquering that age old fear. Many people are traveling on this road with stories that are untold, but faith keep them marching on the road that leads to nowhere. We manage to make it to the sea where the temperature was below a hundred degrees, the sea was calm, emotion was still and the path that lies above the hill was steep, but just as we were about to board the ship something cause the ship to twist and the quiet moment slowly fades away and a sudden turbulence cause the ship to drift away further from the sea.
A sudden force catapults the ship into the sky, and it was that very hour that I should have died, but something in the middle of the sea, favors me and kept the ship smooth sailing on the sea. The road you are on leads to nowhere, the road you are on, cannot win the race, the road you are on keep spinning you around, the road you are on keeps dragging you back into the ground and the road you are on cannot get you out of the town.
Go back to the original map and find where the “bucks” stops, make a U- turn and you will stop spinning listlessly around, and if that doesn't work make several pivots at the dangerous spots and that too will prevent you from falling into the trap. The road that leads to nowhere ends up nowhere. Get your things together for this time we are going somewhere.
