latin translation needs help

Hi, I would like to know the Latin translation for this Henry David Thoreau quote;

"Pursue some path, however narrow and crooked, in which you can walk with love and reverence."

is this translation close or does it need changing?...
"Sequere nonnullus iter, quamvis substrictus et pandus, in quo ambulare possis cum amore et reverentia"

Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan

@dannytighe,
Nonnullus means "some" in the sense of "several".
I'd suggest aliquod.

Since iter is neuter, use substrictum and pandum.

I'd use potes rather than possis.
