Pilgrimages of the Soul

Life is nothing but a series of changes



That disrupts and rearranges



How we deal with this vicissitude



Depends greatly on our attitude



Changes keep coming, no way to halt



One after another, an endless assault



Each one different than the one before



Giving new feelings to explore



Changes are a constant in our life



Caused by joy, sorrow, age, or strife



Sometimes dealing with the concept



Is harder than the reality to accept



Yet we go on until the end



When this life we will transcend

This poem was written February 28, 2003 as a result of changes I face everyday in my own life, and knowing that others are also going through daily changes.

It is very true that Life is 10% what happens to us, and 90% how we deal with it.

I have found that most everything in life can be dealt with and accepted as soon as we realize we have little or no control over anything but our own attitudes.

I think you express that very well.
