It all Ends the Same
All Roads lead to Rome
Nothing doing, that’s not done
Born too late or born too soon
We learn life by and by
Be it with sticks or stones
All Roads lead to Rome
Whether you learn
Whether you’re taught
Pay stipends for doing
Or do together with a crowd
Roads...long meanderings ones
Short and straight
Lived true and wise
Or dangerously adventurous
Destinations stay the same.

All destinations lead to the grave, but the road taken can change as one chooses I believe so. I definitely don't think life is preordained.
Great thought provoking piece Grace.
All the best in the comp. :)

Yes, Magdalena, on the highway towards our final destination, we can choose adventures by the way we live. Thanks for reading, as always.
