Unbeaten Path

no path is greater than the one you lead
the one you presently lead is the one you stay on
to follow another’s path you gain no earnest trust in yourself 
one path can lead to another but you lose the corner stone of your life.

Your own path will establish your true self
your true self  cannot hide nor pretend it was not
there is never an end to self realization 

You can look back and see the way that you’ve been
to where  you are now and where you will discover
that one path led by you is your  journey 
the greater the journey the greater the direction you led.

the path widens as you journey
in retrospect you will see the accomplishments
that you achieved along that one way of life
what you achieved in life will be the 
cobblestones of your life story
