This got me thinking about the trod path I used to use coming home late at night. It ran from a neighbour's front lawn, continuing down the side of the house and through their back garden. This in turn led to the back gate of my parents house. A right of way going through private land. It was a considerable short cut. I wonder how many such trod paths still exist?

Well it's over four years since I pondered over this question. I guess many more trod paths have closed, indeed the one I mention above has gone. All part of the stitches in life's rich tapestry.

I thought I saw a BBC article on this a few years ago. Also but not exclusively about paths people used to take for funeral processions in Britain.

The stairway to Heaven is less congested than the pathway to Hell.

So the highway is faster you're saying. Maybe people sick of hearing that same guitar solo again and agains are avoiding the stairway.

To be honest they are the same non-existent abode.

Donavan, your trod path explanation made me think about words used in the US to describe such a thing: it's called a desire path.

I desire more paths. Paths not math. Paths times maths. Love plus one. ❤️
