Stand Up

It’s a bit rough, and a little repetitive of things I’ve written in the past. But I needed to write something yesterday. So here it is.

You must go your own way.
For your way is also God’s way.

I can play my way
but I have to pay to play.

The rules are the rules, no matter how I feel.

I am human
and humans are error-prone.

There is no escaping this
I must learn how to use it to my advantage.

I am lucky to know this.
And it is unlikely that uninterested folks will learn this
because they were told.

They have to want to know.

They have to find out for themselves
so that when they find it
it looks like their idea.

I was lucky.
I became ready
and the teacher appeared.

He was not thwarted by my resistance
because I am loved.

But I had to become ready.

Now I must accept
that though I have a key,
the rules are the rules

And the only way out is through.

Some will applaud and some will mock - to each his or her own. But in the end, comes a time when a Friend of abundant form is inevitably there through the sad and bad. Your words are haunting in as much they show your own beautiful spirit, JustCate, Such finely expressed, sincere and gentle words.
