Freedom

Though this road changes daily, with ice or snow to rain or mud, a smile should never fade. The car will grow older and gain milage, but with every turn or mile forward, you gain sense of yourself. And this is the journey, to find and acknowledge who we really are. The person deep in the soul of every one of us is longing to be rescued and set free. So on this road we journey to ourselves. And every day the road will challenge, damage, ruin, and throw us from it's grasp. But, without fail, we will prevail. Because with our tool kits and spare tires, we will push forward. And one day when our gas tanks are empty, our lights have run dim, and our tire-tred has disappeared, we will wither into this road and become it. But through all, we will hold happiness, like a map, to our hearts, to our minds. Because it is happiness that makes the journey worth it. Without smile, why should we care who we really are? Without laughter, why should it matter that we are ourselves? So hold to our maps, because on days when it rains, hails, storms, we will need to remember from where we came and to where we are going. And with endurance and our heads held high, we will drive to the ends of the earth and reach God's most beautiful sunset. And it is in these white lines, graveled shoulders, and dusty trails that we will discover our own engines and our own souls. Here in this path, on this road, in this time, you travel, we travel, to find ourselves. To find who we are. So here is to being set free.
