"I've always seen life as a series of doors. Sometimes you get to choose the door you go through and sometimes you don't get that choice. You still have to walk through it. You can either go kicking and screaming or you can walk through it with your head held high."
-Jay Prichett, Modern Family
Someone posted that quote on FB and I disagreed with it. I started to write a comment but below is what I ended up with and sent it to the person in a PM instead of a comment.
Life is a maze.

Some doors are locked, and some are not
Some are marked, and some are not
Sometimes it takes a simple knock, and other times, you have to break down the door.
OR
I'm afraid, you can't go through even with the heaviest aids
Sometimes you need permission and other times
a password of a rhyme
Persistent is the key, or so I'm told
I keep knocking but I'm growing old
Friends, family, coworkers and strangers are sometimes helpful
Other times their words are just bull
Who's advice to take, and who's looking for a break
Life is so complicated, so complex, I'm not sure what door to try next
Maybe I should just move on to a different door
maybe the next one will give me wings to soar
