To Live

Learning in life

It is not easy to swim in the sea

I have to go with the waves

But find something to hold on

 

It is not easy to fly in the sky

I have to go with the wind

But still need to care for my wings

 

It is not easy to just follow with the flow

I have to listen and then I have to feel

I have to see like I have to consider

 

It is not easy to be a human

I want to be good

But it is not just about me

 

Life is like that

We cannot hold all what we want

But the truth is we were given what we need

 

Life is learning

To live what we need to be

And not always the way we want it to be

 

Life is a continuous study

An unending way of learning

For to live is to learn who we are

And who we should be...

Author's Note

Learning still...
God helps. Love guides.

[Glen Yumang Manese]

Its a inspirational verse...the mind is ever-learning...we only use 10 percent of it...in our whole life time...yet the meaning of life...
is it just merely living it out and hoping for the next evolution of immortality...the other 90 percent we do not use...
is mind-blowing comparison...a bit lopsided...its keeping you eyes and ears open to the progression...
that makes life more each day...all things will come to focus...that takes time...
I'm a man of faith and the collective of the whole picture is quite scrabbled for a reason...someone does not want us to know the other 90 percent quite yet...it has to be earned...

[Pax]

Just using simple words...
I can't express with brilliant metaphors.
Can't even express profound thoughts.
Simplicity is my make-up. Frankness is my accessory.

[Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)]

At dito ka na nagpasalamat ha? :)

[Pax]

that's the beauty of simplisity
words define by divinity
of our nature we came to nurture
life and its learning, we grow as we mature...

[Pax]

hehehe, well okay na dito mag pasalamat, direct sayo... :D

[Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)]

I am glad your new poem now shows OPTIMISM. We should never forget that someone loves us when every else fails to love us...
and never forget that before you learn to love others, learn to love yourself first...because you cannot give what you don't have (love).
S M I L E always ! ! !

Life is an endless lesson, no matter what age… the times they change so fast and sometimes it is hard to keep up with what is happening. A very profound and insightful poem.

[Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)]

Thank you, Sir!

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

You are most welcome young lady.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

this is really good...and so true...

we need to appreciate what we have already...not always long for more...

"to learn who we are/ and who we should be"

we should be okay to be just who we are...but it takes living for a long time to come to that real understanding...

I felt this.

[Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)]

Thank you so much, Sir J.
