Years ago, I discovered a song, called “Only One Road” by Celine Dion. The lyrics of this song, touched me emotionally then, resonate with me more profoundly now.
In life, when we set our eyes on a particular path, our dogmatic determination not only clouds our vision, but it also makes us feel like this path that we are on is a one way street. Even though there are other paths around, even though the self-perceived one way street is in fact a two way street; however, our fixation on arriving at the final destination of this path makes us willing enough to sacrifice and to endure all the cold and bitterness that are sure to be encountered along the way.
