This song represents for me, the journey through one’s life; the trials and tribulations, the cheers and celebrations, the happiness and sadness, the disappointments and the pleasant surprises, the successes and the failures; all the experiences, thoughts, feelings and emotions one has during life’s travels. None of us is lucky enough to travel a straight road without some bends, twists and curves, some misleading signposts that lead to us losing our way, or without stony and uneven paths that create pain during the travel. Some of us may never reach the destination we originally charted our course and set off on, while others have never been able to establish what trouble they are heading for if they don’t chase course.
If you are wise, once you are on your road to where you want to go and believe yourself to be on the right path, then the secret is to simply ‘keep going’ in the same direction. As for blind bends in the road and dangerous twists and turns, know that they exist on your ‘map of experiences to be expected’ and you will not be stunned by sudden change. Approach each blind corner in confidence and belief that what lies around the corner has a greater chance of being something good instead of bad, something exciting instead of threatening, and something that will please your senses and not offend them! There is approximately 60 per cent chance of your experience ‘around the corner’ being an uneventful and harmless one, thirty-five percent chance of your new experience being a good and pleasurable one, and no more than five per cent chance of it being a bad or hurtful experience.
So, you see that the chances of going through all of life’s experiences would suggest that for the vast majority of us, life will be constantly good to us, as long as we dare live it and not merely encounter it in part uncertainty and trepidation.
