Lessons Learned

LESSONS LEARNED When we are young and two make dumb, one plus one equals none, problems arise like stars in the sky. With a tear in our eye, we know we can't undo wrong from right, we know that knowledge is earned and lessons are learned. Adults we are, relationships we make and sometimes they bring heartache. It's our hope that from all we let in, our hearts dont break, and we look at them as not a man's sin, but a lesson we have made it through again. From mistakes to accidents, there is never any thing pleasant and nothing ever any good. We just stand our ground and tell ourselves we are just misunderstood, then we turn with concern and say lessons learned. When it is our time we stand in front of our maker and he rolls out that long scroll of paper, he calls out our name and looks at you in shame, I will look at him and say without a sigh. Lord, l have no concern for these mistakes are turned and lessons were learned. By Rowdy Yates
