MISFORTUNES

Misfortunes
that are caused
by vicious people,
are not the fault
of God
but inescapable
consequences
of our human
and mortal
existence, in a world
of unyielding
natural laws.
And the agonizing things
that happen to us
are not penalties
for our misbehaviors,
Nor are they in any way
part of some grand
blueprint of God.
We could bear all
burdens if we
knew…
there was
a meaning
to what we were doing.
And there is,
And we learn.
And we see.
Every resulting
happiness
is born from
Adversity….

Thank you Dave
