Effortless Expression

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.
