Subliminal Messages

Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long



Life is a series of roads. Upon reaching a fork in your present road you are faced with the need to make a decision. There are various ways to come to this conclusion regarding the succeeding path you'd wish to follow. Some have a guide and some a map, some flip a coin and some continue on blindly- completely oblivious to where they are headed. The selected direction is not always the optimal course. But there is no turning back.


I've been wrong but I've been changing
I've been wondering what to do
Here I am alone and waiting
For you



Everyone makes mistakes, some more than others. Some are quick to learn from wrong turns, while it takes others many more before they catch on.
I know that i have made mistakes. I've been an obstinate driver, unwilling to check directions, ask for help or invite others to come along with me. It has taken years to gain control of my unbending ways, and at times, i still turn back. I've learned that while these roads have twists, turns and potholes, in the end i am going to be ok. I have a Guide and a map, which is all i truly need.

~am i holding this map upside down?~

Heeeeey Lauren.

Are you sure subliminal is the word you were shooting for? I'm guessing 'subtle' would be a better fit :)

The tag line at the end went over my head, though.
