New poem: "Such is the Way of Life"

 

Such Is the Way of Life

 

Nothing brings people closer together

more than a great disaster, be it a global pandemic

or catastrophic weather, —

 

And nothing will cause people to rise up and rebel

more than the suppression of their freedom

to be who and what they’re born to be, —

 

Just as nothing will teach us how to grow in love

more than suffering, whether it be self-created

or inflicted upon us; —

 

Nothing that is wrong, and nothing is right,

it is whatever the individual needs to further the

personal maturation process, —

 

And the time will come, as sure as 2 + 2 = 4, when

our world will be turned upside down to set us

right, for such is the way of life.
