The Blessing of Knowledge
Learning from experience is a blessing…
Tender are the moments of epiphany,
when realization is birthed to manifestation,
as if a thought unthought before, graces being
in a wave of circumstantial flux.
How sweet the knowledge,
when a mind explores untrodden landscapes,
and empowering those thoughts are
that raise us up to new heights.
Knowledge, like a warm inhalation,
immerses our very soul in energy,
and the soul a sponge for enlightenment
revels in the prospect of ascension.
What’s new becomes commonplace,
a truth acknowledged and accepted,
and thirsty is a mind once experienced in that moment,
willing to seek further, higher learning and understanding.
How tender the opportunity of life,
the challenge of understanding a tenuous path,
yet for the traveller a blessing of scholarship,
and a peace of mind that can only come from knowledge.
