Grateful for Less (Repost)

A poem

It's the closed doors that make my path clear
That relieve me of all the weary possibilities 
That took me nowhere
Before they were sacrificed for peace and simplicity 

I must admit that the power of limitations 
Is something I failed to adequately guess
But now that more is out of the question 
I find myself truly grateful for less
