The Fool

It’s easy to become so focused on trivial things, that we miss the truly important things in life. Thriving relationships and vibrant connections with those we travel through life with, are often reduced to nothing more than collateral damage in a world of trivial pursuits. I am that fool.

 

THE FOOL

I started out by picking up a pebble, maybe two

But as my life continued, the number of them grew

I traded some for nicer stones I’d found along the way

Some bigger and more beautiful, and left others where they lay

But as my path continued, I was compelled to pick up more

My arms were overloaded and my back grew ever sore

It was then I happened upon a man who with concern did cry

“Only a fool carries rocks and allows relationships to die”
