No one knows how life will turn out.  Sometimes you cross another person's path. Sometimes you don't.  Sometimes your paths diverge.  Sometimes you double back on yourself, or meet a dead-end.  Sometimes you stay in your lane.  Sometimes you break free, whilst others are held back.  Sometimes you are held back.  Sometimes you find your self going against the flow, sometimes with it.  Sometimes the path is complex, when there are so many possibilities.  Sometimes the path is clear and simple.
