Walking into the misty woods and wandering in desperate places, I would rather boast that I have returned to my true nature. What does it mean?

(Originally I wanted to walk on the legendary bright road, but) I accidentally came to this foggy place where right and wrong are difficult to distinguish. It seemed that I could not find a way out or an answer, but I did not I didn’t give up and kept searching hard; (suddenly one day I discovered) It’s not so much that I went to the wrong place, but rather that I took the real smooth road in the world.
