Be conscious of this
Jonathan Harrington Rook 1976 (Cold Lake)
All to my life
have something to teach me
and something to learn from me.
Every single thing
every single person
every single situation
has something to teach us
and something to learn from us,
nothing is exempt from this.
All who cross my path
cross for a reason,
all who share the path
share for a reason,
and all who depart from my path
depart for a reason.
Everything goes through this
with something to enlighten
and something to discover.
All to your life
teach you and learn from you,
Be conscious of this.
