I Only Journey this Path Once

by Upasaka Fa Jian, October 2007

Some people cross our life for a season,
because it is time to share, grow and learn.
They bring experience of peace and joy.
They say or teach something new and enriching,
          even if not felt right away
It is real, but only for a season.

Long relations teach lifetime lessons:
Wisdom and maturity must be built
          in order to gain solid foundation.
Accept a lesson, love a person,
          and put what you have learned
                    to use in all of life.
Emotion is blind, but friendship is clairvoyant.
Thank each person for being part of your life.
