Photo Challenge #8

The path is long, 

the lessons learned will be many

along the way. 

Though there is darkness in the now, 

the light is at the end. 

In the distance ahead 

the darkness will be a memory, 

not forgotten, but no longer 

hovering ahead. 

Though the path was long, 

the journey was 

inevitable. 

It may have been filled with heartache 

and pain, 

but in the end it was worth 

the lessons learned. 

In the end, 

what will your journey read?

Did you stand, and persevere?

Did you fall and not push ahead?

How will your journey end?

Our path is chosen for us, 

long before we are born.

The outcome is known to the one who created us, 

but unknown to us

until the end. 

The path we walk,

the journey we take,

in the end

it made us who we are. 

The journey may have been made in the darkness

of the unknown, the fear of what lies ahead. 

Only if you are willing to 

continue, 

will you see that there is a light 

at end of the journey.
