I took the road less traveled,
it wasn't easy,
going where most chose not.
The path was not clear,
it had not been traveled many times before.
There is beauty in the road less traveled.
Choosing to follow the old road
you miss the beauty.
Being lost makes reaching the destination great.
Being confused and frustrated with yourself
makes your confidence grow
with each right turn you make.
Taking the road less traveled isn't easy.
But it is worth it.
