Tonight I met my past

Tonight I met my past

and thanked him for daring

to digest the amount of pain

he had to

so my present can smile

within a fraction of wisdom

~~~~~

Embrace your pain

swallow, but chew thoroughly

We fear discomfort

And crave immediate gratification

But to hide behind your shadow

means you'll never see the light

This one left me smiling... some have a middling tolerance to pain you know, and some really, really don't. Some even still help others just because it IS how they are - not how they have to be.

Thank you for the wise words sir, I concur!
