Let Your Soul Sing or How to Pick a Path

But there is no such thing as a right or wrong path to travel

Yes, there are many ways to choose, even ones that are never acknowledged

Yet claiming a path as right and another as wrong does more harm than good

 

My options are open not framed in these constrained options

Rather I will walk down the path that makes me feel alive

There are always paths, and I mean multiple, that send each spirit soaring

My aim is to travel down those paths that make my soul sing

 

Yes, there are paths that hurt the soul and destroy the spirit 

They probably destroy the world around you too

But I have walked down those paths and there is no shame in admitting it

Framing it as wrong, just allows the world to label you as bad and in need of repentance

 

But those paths I’ve walked where I hurt myself and others, the damage was done just by going down that path. No need to label it and hold onto it further

Just time to accept that path didn’t make my soul fly and choose to go down another road

 

It might seem easier to go down some prescribed path that you don’t have think about, and to not even give nod to the other ways out there.

As long as you can carry the burden of the norms and pretend to meet the standards, maybe it will carry you for a moment

 

But the real freedom comes when you realize that there is no need to carry burden of that path and attempt to meet it’s norms

All paths are just paths, and some work better for others and there are always so many to choose to from

 

Follow your heart and listen to how your soul sings. Many journeys on roads, trails, creeks, and paths will all follow, none right or wrong, all just part of life.
