Under Construction

Whether you are one day old or a hundred years old,
we are all Under Construction.
If you aren't learning and education yourself daily,
you're already dead.

Sometimes, it's not about learning facts and figures,
but instead learning to navigate a situation;
where to step and where NOT to step;
what to say and what NOT to say;
what to do and what NOT to do;
when to stand up and when to walk away;
when to join the circus and when to get out of the ticket line;
when to speak and when to listen;
when to hug and when to just exist beside someone.

Skills that aren't taught, only learned
in this rugged adventure called Life.

I wish for you today, construction that is always positive,
no matter how painful or how far the detour takes you.
