Choices & Roads

At this point in our lives, we can look back at our earthly journey and ponder which roads we did and didn't take. We've become better at planning our journey and navigating the choices as we mature. We've gained experience, knowledge, and wisdom on our journey. That makes for better, and more informed, choices.

Alice finds herself in a strange place and contemplates the direction she should take. Talking with the Cheshire Cat - 

Alice: Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?

The Cat: That depends a good deal on where you want to get to

Alice: I don't much care where.

The Cat: Then it doesn't much matter which way you go.
   (Alice in Wonderland)

We need to know where we're going so we can make good choices.

Robert Frost talks about choosing a road. 

"Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

.....

I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

I took the one less traveled by

 And that has made all the difference.
The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost

*******************

Christ shows us the road that gives us lives of purpose, service, and experiences that help us become like Him and Heavenly Father. His road leads to eternal life -  life with Him and Heavenly Father.

We're thankful for the road we have chosen. It has made all the difference.
