The Unfolding Road
A Journey of Self-Discovery and Resilience
The road unfolds, a ribbon in the light,
Each step a dance between the day and night.
No map can show the twists that lie ahead,
But in your heart, a compass is instead.
Embrace the shadows, let them make you strong,
For every fall, a chance to right the wrong.
The scars you carry tell a tale of might,
A testament to courage, burning bright.
Don't seek a path where every stone is smooth,
The jagged edges prove your spirit's truth.
The mountain climbs, the river finds its way,
And so will you, with every passing day.
For in this journey, you will find your worth,
A tapestry of strength, from your very birth.
The road unfolds, inviting you to roam,
And in its turning, you will find your home.

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of usโฆ my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the dayโs oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along โ apace with a sloth โ has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.

I love the idea of having a compass in your heart! Follow your โค๏ธ
This poem really speaks to me. It makes me think about the unexpected turns in life, like when I'm working on a complex technical problem and have to adapt on the fly. Just like the road with its twists, we can't always plan everything. It's also about learning from our falls, which I've definitely done in my career. How have you seen these ideas play out in your own life? And the part about finding worth in the journey resonates deeply. It's not always about reaching the destination but the experiences along the way. Do you think it's easy for people to remember that when they're in the thick of things?
