dark and backward abysm of time

"What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time?"....... "To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time, And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing"

Name:

"where there is love, nothing is too much trouble and there is always time"

Crossroads

And so it goes that In order to know where to go from here, it is important to know where you've come from.Or so they say. and i'm not just quoting will smith in 'Hitch' here.
so i do know where i've come from. In fact i've traced my path along the 'i've come from there' map 3 times over and it's still not shedding any light on where my path would lead from here..not even which path i should i take. Not even a clue as to whether there IS a path out there for me. well i guess there is one for everyone...right?but it's hard to get oneself on it, and more importantly the right one that leads to the place u wanna go.
I wonder what's more important as a starting point...the path..or the destination.
What if u had a destination...and no path..then u'd still be focused on the end point and u;d make your own path to get there right?
Or perhaps if u jst followed some path, any path,u might reach that destination and discover it was always meant to be urs to stumble upon or arrive at quite deliberately, whichever occurs 1st.
i guess whichever way the journey unfolds...the most important thing must be to take the 1st step forward.one cant keep getting lost...er...ok well i could but i'm sure even i can't keep getting lost forever and ever...ive got to find some way in the end.
i've got a magnet on my fridge that goes 'he that chooses his own path needs no map'...always wondered about that one...if it really does hold true. in a sense maybe..but in a sense,not quite.Debatable.
So what next?
I don't know...and i sure as hell wanna find out.
Show me the path and i'll begin my journey....
or maybe i should just begin my journey and in that way, create my own path, and make my way towards the destination, one baby step at a time.
Every road at the end of the day, has to lead somewhere.

Not so sure about this one. I think it's better to have a destination, and move towards it, making yur own path when yu need to, and yu definitely will ned to make yur own path, cos no 2 people's destinations are the same. If yu're not going in any direction, how will yu know that yu have stumbled upon a path?
