PROPHETABLE

The only one who can decide if your time was wasted

Is you

If you learned about Emperor Penguins, was that time wasted?

You will probably never have to deal with an Emperor Penguin

In the normal course of things

It was not a waste of time because they are interesting to learn about

How much more important is it to find out about matters

That directly affect our hearts, minds, resources

To determine if someone's character is what they are showing us

Or is only one side of a person whose other sides might be

Incompatible with who we are

Is that investment of time, thought, energy and emotion

Going to be rewarding, or impoverishing?

We absolutely need to find out if we are headed for a bad situation

Even though we have hope for a good outcome we will remain observant

Look for signs, portents that this is getting too something 

When we might need to back off, step away

From a deteriotating situation that threatens our sense of self

Peace of mind, necessary resources

So we meet and greet, give it a try, all the while learning

Nothing is so valuable as information, especially hard won information

Put those coins of wisdom in your bag of tricks

You have invested in your self, your future, and your peace of mind

You have bought the ability to predict where this is headed

And knowing what you are doing, where you are going

And why

Is a jewel beyond value, one to place in your crown 

As you build your kingdom of experiences into a mighty fortress

Guarded by Experience and Self Realization

Where only the worthy can pass into the inner courtyard

Of Peace, Prosperity and Health
