Obstacles

life is always full of obstacles...

small ones.. big ones

some are very challenging, others quite easy to get by

but no matter what blocks the way

bare in mind that there's another road ahead

its now in you on how you'll get across.

you may climb...quite hard

but it will give you a good look of what's ahead

making you fully aware of what you're plunging into.

you may go around what's blocking you

that would take time 

but you don't have to sweat as much as in climbing through it.

it will also allow you to have a peek of what's awaiting ahead.

or you may stand in front of that obstacle

stare at it and turn on your back

back to where you've come from

and wonder forever in life if what's ahead.

think of it this way

what is a little sweat, a scrape on the knee

probably a blister or two on your soles

but your curiosity fulfilled

than not to sweat at all nor bruise yourself

but wallow in your gray years

with the WHAT IFS of an unlived life...
