Lost Cause

“Not all those who wander are lost.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

I always read this quote and ask myself, what’s the meaning of being lost? Does anyone ever know what is the real meaning of being lost?

To lose yourself is to lose your principles, to lose what you believe in, what you fight for, what makes you who you are. To be lost is to lose yourself completely, is to be a lost cause, to lose everything that makes you pure, that could make you back to your old self.

The worst case is the lost cause, is to fight the darkness inside yourself, is to fight yourself, Does anyone tried to fight himself to not change? Could anyone back from the darkness inside himself? Maybe some, few people did it, but many others have been lost.

You’re the one who has the choice to choose between the right and wrong, between easy roads and difficult ones, between lies and truths, between losing and fighting, choose wisely or you’ll be another lost cause…
