Array ( [sid] => 108292 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Choices [time] => 2005-10-23 08:31:49 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Choices…
Too many
Not enough
Which is worse?

Having too many choices is about better time management
Refocusing energy
Not having enough choices is about being too passive
The inability to use energy to create good

The path is not always easy
No matter how hard someone tries to “stay the course”
He or she will fail
Since childhood we were taught that failure is bad

But what if failing is the ONLY choice?
The only way to learn?
The only way out of the misery that more times than not we brought upon ourselves?

If that is the case
Then I say FALL ON
Fall with pride
Fall with joy
Most of all fall hard and learn substantially

Then get up
Pat yourself on the back
And know that you have learned a lesson with an ease that most people will never understand

Choices…
Too many
Not enough
Which is worse?

Having too many choices is about better time management
Refocusing energy
Not having enough choices is about being too passive
The inability to use energy to create good

The path is not always easy
No matter how hard someone tries to “stay the course”
He or she will fail
Since childhood we were taught that failure is bad

But what if failing is the ONLY choice?
The only way to learn?
The only way out of the misery that more times than not we brought upon ourselves?

If that is the case
Then I say FALL ON
Fall with pride
Fall with joy
Most of all fall hard and learn substantially

Then get up
Pat yourself on the back
And know that you have learned a lesson with an ease that most people will never understand

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
