The Road...Part 1

I was on a road once and I thought that I new were it would lead. It looked promising and full of wondrous beauty. The road was not of yellow bricks but it was my road and I started on it full of joy. On this road I had what would later in my life prove it self to be a small heartbreak but in time become over shadowed by much bigger surprises.
I was a full fledged DREAMER, nothing was impossible no dream too big nor too small all was good. It was all accompanied with a smidgen of apprehension and fear but not enough to paralyze me, I kept moving because obstacles were merely challenges prompting me to retreat and create new ways of overcoming and conquering them. The dream was bigger than me and distractions started to creep in and with no true guidance entertained me as I gave in to complacency therefore becoming disenchanted and my kingdom built on DREAMS began to disintegrate and slowly loose it's appeal and challenges became insurmountable and immovable objects that I quickly let move in. I had given up. Later in life I received what is know as my second wind and I got back on the road but it did not have the same appeal, I had lost so much along the way and "my memories served me far too well and if these wounds they were self inflicted I don't really know how my poor heart could have protected me"...G.
