Effortless Expression: poetry & prose

Life is given to be taken care of, and so. Our live's are our fault. We could have changed it, if it didn't suit us. We didn't know how to change it. All the happenings, in all of our years, should have taught us more. We didn't pay attention. All the teachers around us, family, friends, strangers, enemies, including ourselves. All the good, all the bad, all the heartaches. We didn't pay attention. We've forgotten some of the good, because we didn't change the bad.
We are older, a bit wiser, looking back we stumble in thought. The bad gets worse, less talk about the good gets lost. God got us through. The bad choices we made went against the precious guidance of our Lord. Human nature nurtures stubbornness. It makes us feel good. Really, as we kick ourselves down the lane of age, we realize, we had the choice to change things, and didn't. Because we were, immature and stubborn.
