Doubts about roaming other paths.

Some of our important choices have a time line. If we delay a decision, the opportunity is gone forever. Sometimes our doubts keep us from making a choice that involves change. Thus an opportunity may be missed.

James E. Faust

Should I wait?
Or should I turn the other way
leave
and start it all over again

Should I wait for our recognition
for your appreciation of value
to know if I’ll stay?
Or should I gather my broken glass pieces
And glue them far away from here.

When will I decide to face the truth
And know I’m not made to be tied
to places, persons and circumstances
I should release this tight knot
And leave, breathe and reconnect
I might never have another chance to act.
