+### Load Strategy
+Load strategies allow control over the queries generated by `Load` operations.
+Different strategies change the size of the queries sent to the database as well as the amount of work the database has to do.
+A load strategy is provided to gomg on initialization.
+
+The defined load strategies are:
+- `gogm.PATH_LOAD_STRATEGY` -- Use cypher path queries to generate simple queries for load operations.
+- `gogm.SCHEMA_LOAD_STRATEGY` -- Leverage the GoGM schema to generate more complex queries for load operations which results in less work for the database.
+
+Depending on your use case, `PATH_LOAD_STRATEGY` may result in higher latency.
