There's a Road


There's a road a winding road that never ends…Full of curves lessons learned at every bend…Goin's rough unlike the straight and narrow It's for those who go against the grain…Have no fear dare to dream of a change live to march to the beat of a different drummer…And it all might come together And it all might unraveled…On the road less traveled 

For the road less traveled ain't for the faint of heart…For those who choose to play it safe and never stray too far…Me I want to live my life and one day leave my mark…And it all might come together…And it all come unraveled…On the road less traveled…

The lyrics above are from George Strait’s song, The Road Less Traveled.  I think of those lyrics often, as they remind me to take the road less traveled rather than the known or safe road.  There are still things to learn on the safe road, but there is so much more to experience on the road less traveled.  You meet new people, try new things, and learn a little bit.  Many people drive right pass the road less traveled for two simple reasons; it’s out of their comfort zone and it’s change.  The irony is that stepping out of your comfort zone and change are both essential components to growth and living life to it’s fullest.  Try picking a different direction in some part of life. 

Do something that you never thought you would do.  Take dance lessons, learn to sing, jump out of a plane, or anything that moves you out of the status quo: “For the road less traveled ain't for the faint of heart…For those who choose to play it safe and never stray too far…Me I want to live my life and one day leave my mark…And it all might come together…And it all come unraveled…On the road less traveled…
