Walking Blindly

I'm walking blindly
In a two way street 
Feeling my way
Stumbling on my feet

Most of the time
I don't know my path
What the hell I'm doing 
How to get it straight 

I'm crawling still 
Trying to learn 
Committing mistakes 
Feeling the burn 

Of being out of place 
But I’m doing my best
I just need a direction
A north… 
A compass…

Hi sweetie, I'll crawl with you, I give you my compass, because I totally lack any sense of direction :)

One foot after the other, just keep walking, the direction you need will find you when you least expect it. Nicely expressed Claudia.

Lovely, Claudia. We are all on that same journey and we all need direction. Thanks for posting this reminder that we all have common issues we face in life. I read your blog. :) I'm happy for you. I was gifted a PM and Life membership by a very dear member here. I have a feeling your benefactor is mine too. I've been to Brazil...beautiful place. Hugs
