Defining how our lives are spent

Life changes through events
And the choices that we make
Each person touches another
All of this seems to seal our fate

So is it any wonder
How seemingly
Inconsequential events
Can make an impact in the way we live
Defining how our lives are spent

The realization of thinking back
Of all the things
That gave our life more meaning

From all the steps we took
Hopefully
We find no regrets
When we stop and take a look

Life's journey is like tree branches
Each one has a different path

The ones we choose to follow
Does not always seem defined
We never know until we pass
Just what it is that we will find

If we chose a different branch
Life may not have been the same

We accept the choice
that we made
And journey down the lane
