Old English weg "road, path, freedom of movement"
also "course in life" in regards to moral, ethical and spiritual choices
from Proto-Germanic wega- "course of travel, way"
from PIE root wegh- "to go, move, transport in a vehicle"
"The Way bears sensation,
Sensation bears memory,
Sensation and memory bear abstraction,
And abstraction bears all the world;
Each thing in the world bears feeling and doing,
And, imbued with mind, harmony with the Way".
"Tao te Ching"
