Crossroads

There comes a point in life when you realize you're standing at the crossroads.

Someone comes along and well in this case, someone is made to come along, smiles and says
'"Hey, I'm walking down that way and would you like to join me for a little walk"?

And you're like “Well I was thinking of walking the other way but I just might take a little walk with you but there's no guarantee that I'll walk the whole way cos I'm not like a good walker and stuff."

And then someone says “Well let’s not worry about that, take a little walk with me and let's talk"

Next thing you know you're like walking and talking and walking and talking and then you're laughing and smiling a whole lot. And when you ask someone if they know what lies at the end of the path they've taken, someone shrugs their shoulders and says
“I don't know where this path leads but I do know that we can keep walking and talking and laughing."

And for some reason you believe them.

The next thing you know, you’re getting married.

P.S : You call it a 'journey'. They call it a 'marriage'.

What you said walking / marriage depends on persons involved in it. For me walking may need not be physcal walking, it is a process of going in life. I could feel so, may be because of a good life care taker - God, and God given life partner. There is nothing to worry. BUt this was not so till I got married. I was desperately worring to have a shoulder to lean on, a partner to share my worries, excitements.....
