Ocean Blue

Cast Adrift


Everyone has a destination 
of what they want to do 
and what their life will be like.  
But like the currents in a river 
the unexpected happens 
that can turn you around 
to a different direction entirely 
or just throws you off course 
for a while as you toss to and fro.  
Sometimes a beacon of light
shows you the correct path
and sometimes you veer off course 
only to lose your way.
Anchor yourself to a strong rock 
that will never let you stray.  
Usually the journey 
is what's most important 
and what you do along the way.  
Your actions and your reactions 
show your true intentions. 
So be kind and pay it forward
because it matters in the end
whether you made a difference 
in your life 
or just let go of all loose ends.

No one really knows what the future holds except God.  Each and every day we make decisions that affect our lives.  We also react to the different happenings in our world in own idiosyncratic ways.  Hope you are going through a good stretch!
