They Never Walk Alone

There are times in life when we feel that we are walking scared and alone down a dark and lonely road. When we’re in a dead end and see no way out. When we lose someone we love. When we are hurting and feel the pain will never end. When we fall and no one catches us. When we cry alone. When we meet overwhelming obstacles. When we fight. When we strike out on our own. When we meet with tragedy. When our lives are unfair. When the weight of the world crashes down around us…

But the road only seems dark and lonely until you raise your eyes from the ground. Then you’ll see the ones who love you and the ones you love walking with you, side by side. Then you’ll see the ones who have gone before you lighting your way. Then you’ll see the one who loves you most behind you, urging you down the right path, ready to catch you when you fall.

In the end, it is up to each one of us to realize that the road is only dark if we choose it. The journey lonely only if we don’t have the courage to ask for help. The path endless only if we only live for ourselves.

The road we walk is the road we choose, and we never walk alone…
