aeglyn Posted March 31 Report Posted March 31 Growing Pains There is no comfort in our growth When feeling cruel progressions They often yield sorrows that Leave lifelong lasting impressions There is no growth in our comfort Where lies abound in soothing thought Banal efforts die a feckless death While culling pearls is seldom sought Adversity and consequence Tenderizes obstinate hearts These overwhelming challenges Provides a wisdom to impart Bittersweet experiences Will teach us lessons if we heed The positive or negative Essential attitudes we feed Aeglyn Sept'2022 NeuroTypical, Carborendum and mordorbund 3 Quote
NeuroTypical Posted March 31 Report Posted March 31 Excellent poem. I remember trying to impart its wisdom to my 18 month old who was throwing a traumatized fit at having to put on her socks, but she wasn't having it. It took years, but I think she's finally coming around. Quote
