The Five paths

The destination may be the same but the journey we each follow is different, learning different things along the way.

We are meant to enjoy the journey but we remain focusssed on the destination.

Five men stood at the edge of confusion, deep in an unfamiliar forest.

The first trusted his gut and turned left.

The second followed his hunch and veered right.

The third clung to caution and walked back the way they came.

The fourth leaned on hope and marched straight ahead.

The fifth paused, unsure, then climbed a tall tree to see the bigger picture.

From above, he spotted the quickest path to the village and thought, “They should’ve waited. I could’ve guided them.” But he was wrong.

Each man’s path unfolded into a story of its own.

The one who went left found the town after a long, quiet journey, learning patience.

The one who turned right fought wolves, and came out braver than he ever imagined.

The one who went back found a group of hikers; gaining friendship and laughter.

The one who went straight was welcomed by a kind family and discovered warmth among strangers.

The one who climbed the tree arrived first—but with no story to tell.

They all reached their version of the village with different stories etched into their souls.

Not because they chose the right path, but because they chose their path.

The forest hadn’t tested their direction. It had revealed their nature.

Trust your journey, you are traveling through it for a purpose.

Enjoy your journey & stay blessed forever.
