Life is a journey, so much we encounter on our way through life.

I made a vow.
I can’t give up now.
No matter what the cost.
The mind won’t remain lost.
I must follow through.
For me, not for you.
No matter how long.
I’ll keep going on.
I wasn’t expecting.
To travel in this direction.
I must remain strong.
This journey is long.
And if I get lost I’ll ask for directions.
So I can secure my bodies protection.
I must not move too fast, if my journey is to be complete.
I am a strong minded young woman, I won’t accept defeat.

    We definitely must make the journey for ourselves and not someone else.

    life is a train journey

    when the jorney ends

    it takes away the joy

    so let it continue oh boy

    I like the bit about not expecting to travel in this direction, life is so often like that. I think it is good that we do not know what is ahead of us, otherwise we would give up.
