I’m learning
And growing
Understanding a process
By staying young.
I’ve denied passion
And excitement -
Traded it in for
Comfortability and calm.
But I grow restless
In such a situation
All of me pleading for a challenge.
What is it about man
That balks at contentment
And seeks some unknowable
Future of risk?
Perhaps it is just me.
I’m comfortable here
But not growing -
Wholly satisfied
But wanting more.
It is not unabashed greed
But rather the understandable excitement of living
That pushes and pulls me onward to
Places I’ve never been.
