Growing up I followed an unknown path. The mystery of life was complex.

 

Sometimes the struggles overwhelmed me, but . . .

 

 

I Knew I’d Find My Way

 

I was a young boy and had no idea what to do.

The world was an open book, but what I was looking for, I had no clue.

I wandered down a path leading to somewhere I was sure.

I wandered down a path leading to somewhere to find a cure—

A cure for the problems I had yet to face,

An opportunity to compete successfully in life’s great race.

My doubts about the way to go confused me in ways I didn’t understand.

My doubts about the way to go confused me in ways I hadn’t planned.

Opportunities presented themselves before me,

Chances to make my way and become the person I wanted to be.

Certain I could swim in a sea of uncertainty, I saw a better day.

Certain I could swim in a sea of uncertainty, I knew I’d find my way.
