The Journey

Life is a journey from our birth
Into the future.
Sometimes we travel the path alone,
Sometimes we find companionship along the way.

An intersection on that path,
And the choice of which road to take
Is worthy of celebration.

While we can only choose our own path,
The choice to include friends
Is in the celebration of our choice
Only sweetens the nectar of friendship.

We embrace the decision
On the road of life with joy and fellowship
Tempered with pain at the parting of ways.

We embrace and celebrate life together
And toast to each others
Continued happiness and success.
