Most of society (over 99%) is okay and willing to travel down the main highway. The main highway is defined as the road most traveled in life; moreover, the main highway is one of safety and security, and there is less pain and an easy way of living (Conformity).
Few are willing to go down the road less traveled. The road less traveled is one of pain, punishment, chaos, and confusion, yet, there is also guaranteed access to death, destruction, and evil.
Going down the main highway is a good thing because it is (of course) safe and secure. In essence, the path (the blueprint) is already laid out with (for the most part) clearly defined ways to be successful in life. Good job, earning money, traveling, and little worries of chaos, confusion, destruction, and evil.
Many people fear uncertainty, change, chaos, and confusion.
However, we need people willing and able to go down the road less traveled. People willing to embrace the suck and challenge themselves in the uncertainty, change, chaos, and confusion.
Because if there is one thing certain in life, it is uncertainty, change, chaos, and confusion.
So, what am I talking about here?
In our society, there will always be wars, threats of war, discussions about war, and even further, events that cause mass confusion, chaos, and destruction/death.
Who would be so bold to deal with these issues? I would argue only 1% of our population.
1% of our population who volunteer so that others – may live the good life or travel down the main highway. That is the life of safety and security. For instance, going to the coffee shop and sitting down and enjoying that coffee. Going to work and coming home with dinner on the table. Spending quality time with family and friends.
Yes, there are challenges in that good life scenario; yet, here in the United States of America, we live in a society that guarantees the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Did not say happiness is guaranteed, just the pursuit of happiness. Yet, I digress.
If you are willing to go down the road less traveled. It is a lifestyle!
It is a life worth it because you will have a sense of purpose. That purpose is to serve others so that they may live the good life.
To our first responders, military members, and those government agents/officers willing and able to do the dirty work on our behalf. Travel down the road less traveled; essentially, they are the 1% of our society willing and able to go through darkness and face evil.
For the younger generation.
Are you willing to go through the darkness in order to ensure others have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?
Are you living up to your full potential?
What is your breaking point?
Do you have boundaries?
These questions will take you off the main road if appropriately answered and well thought out.
Remember, the road less traveled is NOT for everyone. That is why there is only 1%.
I do NOT recommend you travel down the road less traveled. It is a calling!
I only ask that you support that 1%. They may be struggling to come out of the darkness. Come back to the main highway. That’s, why the road less traveled is less traveled.
Ponder on this today.
