What shows
how little
we know?
What can be is
oft far less than
what we expect.
What is now
has never been
what it was.

I’ve lived enough to know
everything never goes as
planned. In the process, I
have come to know you are
not solely responsible for
the mistakes and mishaps
you learn so much from.
The errs of our ways are
not only our own; neither
then should be the solution.
Don’t give up on the trust
that comes from others.
You learn as you go, and
not only you know.
