Life Experienced

Everything is but
a moment in time.
In those moments
sadness comes & goes.
Happiness is gained and released.
A life is experienced
by the truths or lies
we embrace within our hearts.
The foolish seek ego gratification
and the wise pursue love
with every beat
of their heart.

"and the wise pursue love
with every beat
of their heart."

Pursue it at your own risk / There are treacherous waters out there . . . Still, we wade the waters.

The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?  Jeremiah 17:9.

One must be careful what he embraces in his heart, and knowledgeable of the repercussions it may entail.  it is so easy to bring harm to one's self in seeking something that seems relatively harmless.

Enjoyable read.
