\u201cI don\u2019t know\u201d, three simple words, can get one out of a jam\nbut expose \u2018em to derision or worse,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Knowledge is power, the seasoned and competent bear the gold,\nbut sooner or later even top dogs gotta grow and evolve,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Life is a journey, offering something new every day, live as\nyou please but do make it count, don\u2019t let this gift go to waste,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Challenges arise across a wide range of sources, from situations\nand obstacles, new info and viewpoints, perhaps new individuals, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can only lean for so long on what you\u2019ve mastered, the next\nchapter dragging you back to the rank of beginner, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
To fulfil that potential calls for repeated fresh starts, sucking\nat something new is always the hardest part,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can\u2019t be fed if that mouth\u2019s closed, speak up though you\nseem uninformed, don\u2019t fake what you don\u2019t know, never ends well for liars once\nexposed,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There\u2019s someone willing to lend a hand, share what they\u2019d\ngleaned through trial and error, new perspectives be unlockin\u2019 brand new\nadventures,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But for every Yin there\u2019s a Yang, where some are thoughtful\nothers are spiteful,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Choosing to scoff and disparage rather than understand and\nencourage,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Responsible for many a tortured soul drowning in a wave of\nhumiliation and reluctance,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Drawing \u2018em into their shell, life passin\u2019 \u2018em before they\nknow it, self-loathing kicking in, their confidence irreparably shattered,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A message to such types, y\u2019all need to quit it, why mock \u2018em\nrather than teach \u2018em? Why join the ranks among society\u2019s vermin?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Could have been a helper but choosing to be a villain, way\nto be another reason why the world\u2019s fucked and headed towards oblivion,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why be the cause of another\u2019s insecurities and pain? What\u2019s\nthere for y\u2019all to gain? A moment of smug satisfaction, perhaps? Once enjoyed\nthere\u2019ll be no last laugh,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enjoy being frozen out by the masses once they learn the\nextent of your crassness, no one likes a bully, picking on neophytes won\u2019t win\nyou popularity contests,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Y\u2019all were beginners too, the least informed in the room,\ntentative, reluctant and confused, looked like lost little fools,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Y\u2019all are just as flawed as the others, your delusions of\nsuperiority are numbered, only a matter of time before you get your\ncome-uppance,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To all the rookies out there, still green and yet to find\ntheir wings, hurdles are inevitable when moving onto bigger and better things,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Face \u2018em, don\u2019t duck \u2018em, seek guidance when needed, no\nshame in recruiting extra hands while building your kingdom,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Got new worlds to conquer, feathers to add to that cap, engage\nwith it, persist with it, before you know it it\u2019s a wrap,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then it\u2019s onto the next, the cycle repeats, begin again, never\nstop growing,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That, my friend, is the art of living.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
