We must choose a path.

A J C 1958 (Swansea, MA)



We must choose our path.

This world is just a place to stop. It's only a resting place before we reach eternity. We must choose our journey, and every path we take is different along the way. We're all here to learn, but we're never meant to stay. As we look for a place that we don't know. For some, the journey's quicker, and for others, it's slow. In the end, we find peace and rewards where there are no billboards or landlords.
