Learn and Take No Offence...

A Thoughtful Life:
There is  beauty in giving ourselves it's own lesson....when we thought we are doing alright.
You see when I see the younger ones seemingly intentionally choosing the wrong path or situations, the more I wonder why  they don't particularly care about their body, education or reputation.
I wonder what made them come thru that decision where they can endanger or stunt  their future and at times their lives.


Has education in the school and loving supporting parents or family  not enough to try to make a thoughtful decision that will be good for them and their spirit ?


I wished my boys will not be jumping into bigger serious damaging step that can really burden and put hardship on their lives. I have seen it  and lived some. My past is a sum of  lack of experience, knowledge and education of what is really a good decision, a wise choice and a thoughtful engagement in life. My ignorance was the defeat of me...yet my courageous spirit is my safety net that kept holding and catching me from those disasters and shame.




Good Lessons:
I am now looking and admiring  these younger people, hopeful and faithful that they will have a clearer and better grasp of  what they can do with their youth, strength, brains and beauty...paired with a compassionate knowing heart. I am seeing most opposite...those younger ones trying to grow up faster, older yet shallower and with a fighting feisty attitude. I don't find it  amusing but interesting enough to wonder in awe how the most knowledgeable youth would just ignore the  good lessons they have learned and known from school and their parents.




Take No Offence:
It is not my personal burden to see them create their own  future's demise, dreams shattered and their youth thrown to the trash...yet its is my duty to let it go, forgive and take no offence for others stupidity and lack of thrust for themselves and love ones.  Looking back then and seeing what I have now, in my limited world, I only see love and forgiveness as the key component in surviving and thriving in this world, much as full of hope and excitement, it's, also filled with uncertainty and offensive surprises.
