“He who knows others is clever, he who knows himself has discernment.” Lao Tzu
The One Road I've often wondered as life goes on, if there are as many journeys as there are roads to take and, how does one discern a road when the road runs out and the map is somewhat confused? To love and be loved, to let go and to go, to know and not know, and to be less judging of the self, trusting the one road, the interior road that knows. ©Paul Vincent Cannon

I like your take on this, Paul. An interior road is not something I’ve contemplated.

A very thought-provoking poem, Paul. I do have an interior road that is usually very clear. I just have difficulty walking down it with everyone shouting at me to walk down theirs.

Ah, yes, that is the real dilemma Liz, dealing with that noise, so coercive, manipulative, compelling, plausible, at least you/I know it, we’re on the way! Thank you for your transparency and vulnerable response.

Just so Astrid, and I guess as we age and/or mature we learn that more closely. Thank you.
