Once more I find myself here
At the corner of Choice and Fate
Wondering where the path goes next,
The path beyond this Gate.
Is it good?
Is it bad?
Will I be happy?
Will I be sad?
Sometimes all I need
Is to just take that next step
Onto the path beyond the Gate
And be glad I lept.

Life is full of choices, and sometimes they are difficult. You know that happiness could lie before you, but you can't be sure. Just take the step, make the leap, and it'll bring you to where you're meant to be.
