LEARNING

LEARNING, LEARNING IS ALL WE DO

IT SEEMS, FROM BIRTH TO DEATH.

LEARNING THIS, LEARNING THAT

UNTIL OUR VERY LAST BREATH.

BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING

TO LEARN, I THINK, IS WISDOM,

AND THERE ARE TWO KINDS.

ANYWAY, THERE ARE IN MY MIND.

FIRSTLY, THE EARTHLY WISDOM,

HOW TO LIVE WELL, AND LIVE RIGHT.

NEXT, THE HEAVENLY WISDOM,

TO GIVE YOU POWER AND MIGHT

TO OVERCOME HARD TESTS

AND TO TEACH YOU TO REST

ON THE WORDS THAT HE

TEACHES YOUR MIND.

BOTH MUST COME FROM EXPERIENCE,

I THINK, LEARNING IS ALWAYS UPON

THE BRINK OF TOUGH TIMES, AND

HARD CIRCUMSTANCES, IS THAT RIGHT?

SOMETIMES, I DO NOT KNOW

WHICH WAY TO GO, BUT IF I

LISTEN INSIDE, I SHALL GET A

WORD TO LEAD THE WAY.

HOW STRANGE LIFE TRULY IS,

OR MAYBE IT IS JUST THIS PERSON

WHO IS WRITING THESE WORDS.

MAYBE I AM WRONG, SO WRONG.

IF I AM WRONG, PLEASE HELP ME.

IF I AM RIGHT, PLEASE TELL ME,

SO THAT I SHALL NOT WANDER

ALONE ANY MORE.
