People say
“You always have
a choice!”
No.
You always have
options.
You don’t always have
a choice.
Choices
sometimes have to be acquired
through learning,
discovering,
or creating.

Mistakes
Sometimes
we wonder to ourselves
why we have to make mistakes
to learn what others
already seem
to know.
Without realizing
that they, too,
may have had to make
the same mistakes,
just earlier than us.
Or that they have yet to learn,
but merely come across
as if they’ve learned
given the luck
and grace
of their circumstances.
Same Thing
When someone says
the same thing
over
and over
and over again.
There lies an opportunity
to explore the depth
and nuance
of the supposed
“same thing”
with the realization
of empathy.
