The Yellow Brick Road

The journey of a million miles begins with one simple step. It is the destination that dictates our direction. Once your coordinates have been set, then the only thing left to do is walk.

 I was told to follow the yellow brick road. That it would lead me to a place called the Emerald City, and there, is where I would find all of the answers to everything I ever wanted to know. What they did not tell me, was that the bricks on the road, are not always yellow. They did not tell me that the road had bridges either. Like any and all other bridges, without proper maintenance, they deteriorate and collapse. The road to the Emerald City is filled with fragile and broken bridges. It seems that everyone wants to use the yellow brick road, but no one wants to maintain it.

I have often seen this place in my dreams, and on a few occasions, actually got to meet the wizard. One time, he told me a secret about the yellow brick road and it made me laugh. Not just giggle, I mean rolling on the floor laughing. I wish I could share it, but I promised not to. You are sooooo going to laugh when you learn it. Have fun on the yellow brick road.
