Learning to Live
Behind each face is a story
Behind each story a fear
That makes each person human

A collective of experience
Walks the earth in conscious contemplation
And even denial

So many just exist
Carried by a stream they call life
Some experience torrential rain and raging waters
While others drift with purpose

Life is a process of living
People seeking purpose - acceptance
All are searching for a feeling
That they believe will make them happy

But what if they never find it
And what if they knew they wouldn't
Would they give up hope
And render their own lives pointless

Or would they turn their search inward
To the only place the feeling they desire exists
Would they then learn to live
