Poem: Life Lessons
Sometimes I wonder
what type of lessons
weโre trying to teach
each other.
We communicate without listening.
We rage and show no compassion.
We know the absolute truth,
yet, no one agrees on what that is.
We are distant and irritable,
but at least weโre right.
I think most people must
find life boring.
Theyโve lived so little,
but they already
know everything.
This was so deep I had to read it twice.
Aw, thanks. ๐
You’re utmost welcome!
Nice. There’s a reason for civility in discourse. It’s so that we can begin to listen to another point of view without reflexively closing our minds.
Very true.
