Success Depends On Your Choices

By Wilvia D'Souza

Leaving our mother's womb, we took our first step.

Shadowed by our parents,

Making decisions for us about what is right and erroneous

The second step is for us to decide for ourselves

By verbalizing with our parents about what is precise and just, In order to obviate ourselves from facing unknown challenges.

Thirdly, we optate arduous paths because we are discombobulated. Moreover, no one can exhort us.

At times, we might doubt ourselves.

A sense of accomplishment and wings of liberation comes with the last step We choose what fits our habits and needs.

It's either to forget the first step or to take the path we feel is right.

It's all up to us,

The right,

The erroneous,

The culls,

The road.

At the terminus of the day, we just need to accomplish something.
