NECTAR OF LEARNING


Over and Over again
How many times
the same lesson
Over and over again.
Ad nauseam

Until finally
I get it.
When this…. then that
Oh! I've been here before.
I don’t have to go here again.
Lesson learned!
Next lesson.

Musical scales, weight lifting, sketching, technical trading…
All discipline.
Practice makes perfect.

Spiritual life is like that.
This... not that,
internal... not external…
practice, practice, practice.
‘Failure is the pillar of success.’
I get it...

Thank you, Lord
I am not afraid
to fail… again and again
I know
Eventually…
I get it...
Oh Lord, bring it on
the lessons...

You are my teacher....
Let me taste
The nectar of learning...
