Keep Walking…Straight On!
I simply love walking! Whether it’s walking for hours as a tourist in a new place – discovering the local sights, culture and food; or when it’s a pleasant stroll in the sun or when it’s exercise time.
On many days, walking is my time to reflect, to explore and to get away
from the daily routine. It’s my “me-time”! During my walks, I like to observe
things around me – the beautiful colours of nature all around, people in all
their diversity, myself and my thoughts.
On so many occasions, my walks calm me down and help me focus on things
that I might be struggling with. It isn’t always about finding the solution right
then, but about staying the course. At times, it’s also about exploring another
path! More importantly, it’s about looking back, letting go and moving onward!
To all those seem stuck or lost and want to give up, I hope these words will
help you find your way in your own time.
Today is the first day of the rest of your life and the start of a new
beginning!

Life’s a mystery box
With sweet, sour, bitter times
Some good and bad roads!
We all face struggles
Want answers now, but won’t find
Only looking back.
Standing where you are
Feel stuck to the same problems
Going in circles
Look back, then let go
To reach your destination
Walk straight, break the loops!
Sometimes you fall down
Dust off all the dirt and pain
Get up and walk on!
Pain and betrayal
Anger and grief only wind
You up in circles
Try out the old ways
If you feel like giving up
Tread an untried path
It’s easier said
For paths crooked and scary
Keep on walking straight!
Through its ups and down
Learn and love this life journey
Walk on till the end!
