Origin unclear, Destination unknown

Story

Where we come from is not so clear

All we know is we are here

Whether we descended from the trees or came from outer space

Here on Earth is our place

We populate the planet from north to south and east to west

Moreover, we try to live life to its best

From day to day and year to year

With plenty ideas where to go from here

Wherever we go, we might not know yet

Going with the flow, then all is set

Going on our own we might consider more demanding

But the outcome might also be more rewarding

Chose the way that you think fits you best

Time and faith in your choice will do the rest

Like a young eagle finally leaving its parent’s nest

Going on your own, you might have to stand every now and then a test

You might end up somewhere no one else has come before

You might end up somewhere others want to go no more

On the other hand

People do not naturally tend to be a one-man band

Going with the flow, you get where everybody else is getting too

Once there, observe yourself and ask if this is really you

But life lets you revise the way you have chosen any time

You can change your decision whenever you realize this way is not mine

But whether you change your way or stick to the path you stay

Eventually, we all will individually end up in a common future either which way
