roads are designed to reach destinations
don’t let roadmaps become obsessions
Roads? Where we are going we don’t need roads
Reaching there will be a revelation
don’t let roadmaps become obsessions
these are frameworks to confine you
reaching there will be a revelation
it may not be your dream, your celebration

This seems to be in favor of spontaneity and “going with the flow.” I like it. I chose this quote too but went in a very different direction.

Your words made me think. We all are on the roads to somewhere. Using a roadmap might seem wise, but maybe we will miss something we need to see. We will get where we are meant to be sooner or later.
