Orienteering Life

Hey, you, with your GPS,
are you looking for a hidden cache?
Is it a kind of orienteering where
maps and compass do the steering?
Does it bring a joyful feeling
when the cache you are revealing?
Oh, wouldn't it be just the BEST
if life's goals could be GPS-ed?
Freedom, due north, thirty degrees,
or ten degrees east to whatever you please.
Head west to realize ambitions,
and south to lose all inhibitions.
Check the map to find Fulfillment
in the state of Strong Commitment.
Due north leads to true romance.
A jog to the west gives love a chance.
Heading east for many a mile,
will lead to a life of elegant style.
And a few miles south brings fame and wealth,
while heading back west will guarantee health.
But, how about values like honesty and trust?
Where do you acquire what's fair and just?
Won't you need compassion on your road
and perseverance to carry the load?
Where, oh GPS, is loyalty and honest sweat,
and the joy of many good friends, just met?
Turn around! Look back from where you roam.
You'll find it all with family and home.
