And often there are moments in life when one has to make choices, and still unsure about the outcomes. Inner strength is what helps win the battle ultimately.
What was past, what lies ahead?
Things today quite make me fret
The path tedious and unstinting
Here I stand speechless…
Something unusual in the wind
Something inviting, something pleasant
Something yet so mysterious,
I gaze across…speechless…
One life they say ‘one chooseth his own’;
Be it right or either wrong
But how does one really know if its ‘right’?
I ponder over…speechless…
Wise speak the wisest-follow in their footsteps
Or look for other ways ahead
The goal is one, the unusal paths many
‘Choose’ what? I am speechless…
The world waits to be conquered
And here I draw inspiration
”Look not at past but what is to be done”
With courage and resolve and a hearty smile
Set out to make this world ‘speechless’!
Great poem 🙂

Sometimes enjoying this mysterious silence is better than seeking for answers from the wise.And yes we choose our own life without an idea of outcomes but hope and dreams keep us going.Moreover experiences along this journey gives a great deal of knowledge regarding what is right and wrong. Anyways you have answered well the dilemma of making a choice and its consequences,all we need to do is carry on our karma with sheer determination and courage!:-)
