Punctuated Equilibrium

I’m a primitive thinker and not very smart, But what wisdom you find here comes straight from the heart. Let me not self-aggrandize, I’m one of life’s fools, And my pathway is marked by the bodies of rules. I’m a chief among sinners: your low – I’ve been there, And for much of my life lived unbothered with care. My attention was focused on personal gain, When I wasn’t wrapped up in a battle with pain, With no deep expectations of help from above Reconciled to my living a life without love. But then one day enlightenment came I confess And convinced me to give up on solving my mess. What a gift when I let God’s Grace deal with my sin For it opened my heart to let others come in.
