Our Final Days

 
Our waning days before the final day,
before God’s divine plan for us
to die comes into effect,
are the days  where we have control;
either days of great joy or days of misery
while waiting to die while doing nothing
except staring at the walls
and feeling sorry for our lonely selves,
 
or greater days of eager anticipation.
 
We enjoy doing something
to advance ourselves
through reading, exercising,
or learning a skill and working
toward perfecting it while
looking forward to the next day
when the knowledge of it
fills us full of an acquired satisfaction.
 
Knowledge and the pursuit
of knowledge is a  joyful
continual advancement
of the mind and soul until
our final day of expiration.
 
The time it takes to acquire it leaves
no time for us to feel sorry for ourselves.

My Linda is in a physical rehabilitation facility that is full of lonely people feeling sorry for themselves. I see them every day.
