When left drifting at sea..
With no land in sight..
In sinking ships abandoned..
One is not..
To ponder in thoughts, about drowning..
But rather how to grow fins..
In the survival manuals, crush course guide..
In the face of oblivion's jaws, in readyment to gauge..
The minds perception..
On the subject matter..
Is the difference in making..
Between life and death..
Success and failure..
Winners and losers..
Doubters and believers..
And the wilderness journey..
Is required by all men enrolled ..
Before graduation's robes..
Are to be deemed worthy..
Of medallions won..
I do not seek to educate, I am only but a student in the school of life, I only hope to hear you express your thoughts, from your own thinking and analysis, so we can learn from each other.

Well taught lesson.
ReplyDeleteWhen caught in such a situation, it is the action and not thought which matters.
Worries of drowning or doom spoil significant lives in this world and a part of most lives.
Struggle for growing fins or survival helps eventually.
