A Lesson Learnt - (Written by Sean Achilleos 17 July 2016)
They say that we enter this world as rough as a rock
But through our differences we buff one-another
Until a beautiful smooth pebble is formed
Pressure creates a pearl
Keep what is good and discard the rest
Embrace those who bring out the best in you
If someone brings forth the worst in you
Discard them but remember the lesson learnt
Forgive but don't tread the same path
Forgiveness is a universal command
In order to prevent an emotional prison
But it doesn't mean that you have to repeat the lesson
