Life Teaches
3/9/10

There are lessons,
opportunities to learn,
within every experience,
not always evident
some sneak up
from hindsight recollection,
often what happened
opens up possibility
that was hidden,
closed, perpetually overlooked
because of busyness,
behavior patterns, habits,
mundane narrow consciousness
kept for security,
sense of control,
but disruption occurs
from outside forces,
influential secret desires
born of discontent,
heart wanting expression
for being here
on soul journey,
if nothing more
than telling story
about our challenges,
failures, and victories,
having risked ourselves
to attain wisdom
this life teaches.
