Sitting by the Road

 "We’re always on a path of some sort, headed somewhere. But sometimes we find ourselves sitting beside the road, unsure, stuck, sitting in the dust.  Maybe the road you’re sitting beside is a road that once was beautifully paved, that fed you as you walked it.  But somehow, it became dusty, and you've found yourself sitting beside it.  Waiting, and listening."
