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. - 12/21/16, MR
