Life is like a journey
You haven’t properly planned.
You’re not quite sure
Where you want to go
Or what you’re going to need.
If you find the right road
You’re a very lucky man.
For life has many twists and turns
And so much can go wrong.
It’s not your destination
That matters in the end
But where you went
And what you saw
And who it was you met.
Learning from your journey
Is the most important thing.
So though you may be ill prepared
And not have what you need
The man who learns to love the road’s
A lucky man indeed.
