I learned what was mine was written in the stars, so I never
demoralized with what I lost. I learned that pain was only a twinkling of a
star time, so I never mourned for it. I learned laughter was only a blink of an
eye so I laughed to fullest! I acknowledged that all my beloved were to part
me, so I always tried to expect less from them. I knew my existence was of a mere mortal,
so I strive to leave good and solid footprint to the coming wayfarers! And lo!
There are many to come after me so I bother not with progeny!
I learned that with hard work and hard times the
illumination increases. So I struggle to learn even a morsel of knowledge. I
learned that hate was energy consuming, so I forgave insolence. I learned that
not in every good turn would I deserve equivalent other, so I grateful for the
less and equaled my big with the other less! I knew that if anything wasn't a
blessing, then it would always be a lesson and that my mood was like water;
crystal clear when it was still, and tempestuous, when agitated. So I try to
control my anger! I knew I was in a race to success, so challenged myself! I recognized
my privileges, so I learned to not envy for more!
I acknowledge I was no god, so I accept my weakness and
harness what I could of good morale & moral! I accredit my humanity, so I cry,
smile, love, adore, and worship! I know I was a mercy, so I plant hope to every
creature; plant or animal. I know that death is inevitable, so I teach myself in
every sunrise to give more and ask less. I knew I was a parable, for good or
evil, so I guard over my thoughts, statements, and actions. And when I fail
achieving it, I ask myself why I failed guarding them.
If you ask me now how did I come to these conclusions? I’ll
tell you I experienced plenty and lived frugally. To paraphrase it, I learned things can be acquired but abundance must be tuned to. So stop rushing into things, when the times is right, it will happen.
