Gist of Life

More knowledge would have been fun
I was an idiot not to take the plunge
should have focused on versatility instead;
But was too busy enjoying the safe ride.

What’s the point of only getting to end point
if you are not going to enjoy the ride,
destiny should not be the target; but
experiences should be the ultimate take away..

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
