Choice

“Choice.”

Even when running the same 5 kilometers,

Should I run through Central Park?

Or around Our Nation?

Or along Hakui-cheon?

The options branch out with each thought,

and depending on the course,

the scenery unfolds differently —

often shifting the direction of my thoughts as well.

Our lives, standing each day on countless choices.

Since there is no such thing as a 100% right choice, with a lighter heart,

let’s take steady steps in the direction we have chosen.

For a day like that,

today as well —

Let’s run!
