                            Hard Life-Lessons

Warning signs we will encounter as we travel life's highway.
Some people will heed them and pass on while others will...
fall off path, become stuck in the mud, unable to move forward.

Wrong association, inappropriateness, and the acting out in anger.
Making the wrong life decisions and choices.
Not embracing that which is life-enhancing and letting go of that
which is not.
Not balancing work with play.
Failing to to put systems in place.
Not knowing what to let be or what we cannot change.
Not knowing when to refrain or abstain.
Not being true to ourself or with others.
Failing to take counsel.
Failing to prioratize.
Not placing value on our time.
The inablity to decern between right and wrong.

Until learned the life-lesson will repeat itself.  
For same thinking only brings the same results.
The foolish, the nieve, the immature, and those
who just don't care, will know this, only to well.

The above presented in the fullness of "light." 
Some will stand...
and gaze into it, appreciating the "insightfulness" offered.
Others will turn their back to it.
We learn equally from both.

Some, I discovered,in the way they have lived their lifes, in itself, become's a warning sign.
A life-warning-sign replaced with a tombstone.
