What happens when you walk a couple miles down the road?

One direction you hit a grocery store.

One direction you are sucked back in to the thing you were trying to escape.

One direction you have everything you need at your fingertips.

One direction and you forget about all the other ways to go.

 

Go back to point A.

 

Now go a couple miles down the road in the opposite direction.

There you find the other end of the spectrum.

You find dirt roads instead of highways.

You find bright yellow schools instead of glass, air conditioned buildings.

You find a field and a single mango tree.

You find kids without parents due to AIDS.

 

Both places you find love, different kinds of love, but love none the less.

 

Go back to point A.

 

Look right and look left.

You can go a couple miles down the road in either direction.

Which direction do you choose?
