Every path has a lovely 'give away'

"Whichever path would you take, the left where nothing is right, or the right where nothing is left"? That’s indeed an interesting play on words. On the left path, everything you do is wrong. You can never succeed. On the right path, nothing remains. All you have is a void, and you have nothing to work with. I would turn around and go back. Now, if you’re thinking of political paths, there are paths in between. Most people on the left accept some things that are right, and most people on the right accept some things that are left. There are extremists in both camps, but they are seldom right and don’t have much left.

I guess that all depends on my determination for living and how strong my faith and hope is. If I go right then I give up and surrender because I would go to where nothing is Left. The desire to kill my pain would lead me down that path. If I go left where nothing is right that still shows I have a desire to live on. Life can be great even if nothing is right. How often do things go right on any path. You didn't quit. Willingness to strive ahead even in bad times and having terrible options shows strength. Just get through the path and even though nothing was right. The path ended and left you with options. The other path left none.

Can you believe that 99.8% of the world’s 7.2BN population will, and have taken, the middle path and will do so for the remainder of this life and for the life hereafter. These are the Headless Ostriches with the end of their necks in the sand. They are headless because they do not have the brain to work out that there necks are in the sand. So they are condemned so and let that be so. What was the question again? Which path would you take, the left where nothing is right, or the right where nothing is left?

This is so simple, I cannot believe my eyes’ and brain’s response to it. This is definitely Uncle Tom stuff - but it is good fun and keeps the kids attention for 10 seconds and the Headless Ostriches from snoring for 11 seconds. However, it does not answer the ontological question of what happens if one chooses the right. Does the choice of ‘right’ mean that the chooser becomes a part of the ‘nothing is left’ and becomes nothing himself/herself. That would be the best choice for a suicide because presumably dissolving into nothing would be less traumatic that putting your head in a gas oven and turning the gas on. If you do attempt this ‘oven technique’ be sure to turn the gas on before you put your head in the oven unless you have arms long enough to reach the gas tap un-sighted by the boundaries of the oven aperture.

I think I would tend to go for staying where I am at the ‘Fork of Destiny’ so that I could contemplate for ever on what I will never become. Nothing is everything, and right (correct) or wrong does not exist, so taking the right (direction) leads you to everything and away from nonexistence. One could say: On the left (direction/abandoned) path, nothing (read everything) is (on the) right (side). On the right (direction or correct) path, nothing (read everything) is (on the) left (side). So, either path can lead you to everything, just in different ways (directions/manners).

Other could say: 1: Nothing = Left (direction) 2: Nothing = right (correct) 3: On the right (direction) nothing (noun) is left ("nothing" is being abandoned). So taking the right (direction) path is abandoning what is right (correct). So, the right (correct) path to take would be the left because that is where there is nothing (pronoun), which is right (correct).Or could even say: 1: On the left (direction) nothing (pronoun) is right (correct).

Finally, everything is not right (correct) on the left side. 2: On the right (direction) nothing is left (everything is not like the left side). So, everything is right (correct) So better of taking the right (direction). Finally you could say: lot more. I would say: Take whatever path feels best when you need to choose a direction. There is no need to rationalize your choices because at the end of the day there is no correct or incorrect path, just your path or better yet our path leading to destiny. Cheers!
