The Less Traveled Road

More briers below. More limbs above. It slows your walk. There are logs to step across as well. But with each step brings the possibility of seeing wonders most people will never see experience.

The question is: Will getting past those obstacles really be worth the surprising revelations you'll encounter? The strain is so much less when you go along with the crowd and give up decision-making. Choosing to walk the less traveled road may mean periods of intense loneliness and nagging doubt.

One path offers comfort and conformity, the other adventure and self-definition.
