I read the prompt a little differently than you did.You addressed the issue of how to decide and you did it well. I agree that the ultimate criterion is what you will think of yourself.

Comment from Judian James
This is your very own version of Sinatra's "My Way", deepwater. Well done. I especially liked these two lines: "Only to bet your soul against the human unknown,
Seeking intimate wealth in the company of friends". I do think in a piece this short, I might consider changing out one of the "only"s starting two lines in such close proximity. Just a thought.

Comment from QC Poet
With the addition of the photo - I imagine this capture wanting to life the life of a bull fighter. The lyrics / words stray from that notion if this was your intent. I do like the sentiment behind the words in the poem - one has to love themselves before you can love others,
Very interesting mix of words to picture choice.

--"Go as a pilgrim and seek out your quest,"
Good metaphoric imagery.
--Nice, interesting picture image.
--"well-lit avenues of life,"
Good metaphor.
--"Seeking intimate wealth in the company of friends,"
Nicely expressed.
--"Then will you be at peace with yourself
And to be able to say, I am my best friend,"
So true.
--"truly content
to have lived a life that was of my own choice"
If only most could say this. Nice poem.

Congratulations! That's the attitude we all should have, particularly when we are trough most of our life. Like the song says: I did it my way. No regrets.

deepwater:
Yes, we should try to live a life which leaves behind the
fewest possibilities of regrets. I think one way to do that is to live a life of purpose every single day. zrhat will
leave little room for muvh else.
