Decisions, Courages, Expectations

At the crossroad, deciding
Unchartered, or worn out paths?
Hold onto comfort, safety is ahead?
Be liberated by fear, an adventure is ensured?
Did we limit ourselves in life, in what is secured and sure?
Did we fear to open ourselves to the opportunities of the unknown?

Bogged down by worries of tomorrow
Unable to live and reap the gift of the present
We created tomorrow with sorrow and anxieties
We take for granted of today's sentiments.

Thoughts after thoughts come flashing into the mind
Second and minutes, we are swiftly leaving behind
Soon it will all be gone
And all is left is "I wished"- regrets of the bygone.

Are we ever so spontaneous and do things, without battles in the head?
Are we ever going to decide, have courage and expect nothing?
Every step taken, pricked by a stone
Cut by pieces of broken glasses
Annoyed by the hustle and bustle
Amazed at human nature's nastiness
Appeased by humanity that existed
Our thoughts changed so constantly
But our beliefs are intact, stubbornly.

Things in life did and will work out eventually
Perhaps not as the way that it has been planned initially
But ..........
Can we decide, be courages and expect the unknown?
