WONDERSTRUCK
.
.
When we grow and learn new things
A better way
We encounter the temptation
To reconsider all our part decisions
In the light of this new information
Information we did not have when we were making
These decisions, some of which were obviously
Blunders of the first magnitude
This reconsideration is a huge mistake
To think we were fools back then
What we were was uninformed, naive
A babe in the woods
Wide-eyed, innocent, untutored
Inexperienced
So, while we learn, grow, renew our minds
We never critisize our younger selves
For being wonderstruck
By the overwhelming spectacle of life
Swirling rapidly around us, younger us
Unwise us, now growing in wisdom and that great gift of time
The power of discernment
