Faded in distances

I was standing on the road..a two-way road.I didn't know where to go.I sat down.I was watching both ways with my puzzled eyes.I heard whispring of something.I turned and saw a butterfly,flying with peace and enjoying life.She took one way and flied...I followed her but when i followed her she faded in distances and i remained alone.

  3. One has to have a beautiful heart to write like this.
    Its hard but such is the way of this world...We look up to someone, we find someone and then we are left to fight our own battles, all alone, I guess...

  4. Zarnab, remember the words in Robert Frost’s poem, “The Road not Taken.”

    … I shall be telling this with a sigh
    Somewhere ages and ages hence:
    Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
    I took the one less traveled by,
    And that has made all the difference.

    Follow the butterfly. It’s not an external symbol, you know, but a symbol of your soul.
