A Few Things I Learned So Far ...

There is No "Answer".

There is No "There" there.

There is No "When".

There may be "Why's",

But they are usually too many to count

and aren't very Useful to us on our Journeys.

And, Besides, the "Why's" usually go back

Decades,

Generations,

and some times Centuries.

Interesting to some,

Peaceful to others,

More disconcerting still to others.

Life, if I may Borrow the concept, '...is a big Beast. 

You don't figure it out; ... you Climb up on [it] and Ride...'

We are Given a Brain

and a Heart

so that we can develop reigns

and Sometimes control our Direction,

But mostly its useful to Recognize the LOVE.

Receive It and Return It.

We don't deserve It

And Often It won't come from the Places

that we Think It Should.

But It does Live

And It's How we Are.

And it is Enough.
