You have handled this subject so well. It is done in relatively few lines and yet, it seems to sum up a lot of life's issues. I liked the line, "We die with the understanding of wisdom needed to survive..." Very nicely done, I enjoyed reading it.

This is straight wisdom and a must read for young and old. Why don't we teach this kind of thing in schools. It should be posted in public places, as a reminder. Well done.

Hello...-smile-....yes I agree completely. However I've found there are certain circumstance...individuals below zero cold...who make that impossible. I know this guy who was betrayed by those he called family for a lifetime....and boldly revel in their sin, rubbing shame in his face...are they crazy...? great read .....love Michael

Excellent Write! In so few words the author was able to summarize some great wisdom. The author's words were strong, heart felt and creative.

I enjoyed your short essay on life.

You give a good recipe for a happy life in your four short paragraphs.

I do agree, it is best to set up camp in the midst of those whom we love and trust.

Hugs, d

Very nice little bit of prose...lots of little nuggets of wisdom scattered throughout. I love the line "we enter into this world alone, with no illusion of what is to come" Good job my friend

Wow, this is so deep, and compelling. We die with the understanding...as I reach the autumn of my years, I will remember this well. Very well done.

Wow! Terrific, for sure, and if I had a sixer, so would you! That first paragraph is one I've personally struggled with throughout my life. Being forgiving can be a whip in the hands of your 'frenemies' believe me.

Excellent job. So, is this free verse? I'm a prose writer, so I don't know, but I loved the presentation.

Best,
Gayle
