The Speed Less Traveled – A Poem

 

“The Speed Less Traveled”

 

Two cars merged on to the same road,

But not at the same time or with the same load.

The road not taken is fun at leisure

But if business is your pleasure,

You have to follow roads along with

The masses- even if you’re a leader.

We all must deal with the same delays and distractions,

The same legal limits and the same free passes.

Be your path real or imagined,

The wise are driven to get ahead.

Simply travel the major roads at the

Rare times when there’s no traffic instead.

    Or you could choose to build your own road and charge others to use it with you…

  10. Would I be hurting my manly image too much if I said I totally understand Lombardi’s speech because I lived it to the point of joining the Marines so I could go win in Viet Nam.

    There is very little any more that I have to “win” at and I like my life better now.

    I do have to “win” in this course.
