The Wider Path

     My ideal future would be having a job as touring musician and getting to see the world. I'd really like to live in Canada. I'd love to have a nice girl, no children, and make just enough money to live comfortably, I don't need a lot of money to be happy. I'd like to be in a city, but a smaller one. I like having places to go to and things to do. I love living near a store.
     So here's a hypothetical plot twist. One day I'm on my way to the store, I really want to buy some Trix Yogurt, it's a nice sunny day, the birds are singing, children are playing, Dragonforce is blaring through my headphones when all of a sudden I get hit by an ice cream truck.... darn song distracted me as I crossed the street. I go into a coma for 2 whole years. When I wake up I have no memory on how to play the guitar nor do I have a desire to relearn.
     In this alternate timeline I end up getting really good at making breakfast food. So I open up a Breakfast place. I continue living somewhere in the Boston area. Settle down and have just one kid. Live a quiet and opposite life to the other timeline. Eventually my breakfast place becomes a huge chain even bigger than McDonalds ... well maybe not .... but I do open a 2nd place and to me it feels like being as big as McDonalds.




The Universe works in strange ways
Pushing everyone through their stories
Guides them through their destiny
Time after Time
Many opportunities open for me
Many times money is scarce
But the void is filled with joy
And experience
A great mentor gives me the opportunity
To grow and learn
Always surrounded by like minded others
Opportunities for real work may be low
But opportunities for the dream are high
Take them
Listen to the universe
Life is short
The Universe may be hard to understand
But I'll prevail if I possibly can
