functionalism 39 Once upon our parents' pain

once upon our parents’ pain
we are raised to feel the same
but thinking through the run of this
one comes to think our birth
un-shamed
the world now on some primal track
as pain defends with future’s back
to weight again what we begot
to burry lessons we
forgot
till humble comes what always was
to mirrors dusting ’way our din
to unfurl here our thoughts to joy
beyond adulthood reasons rearing
what holds pain to fear might destroy
our happiness

    Wonderful write. A few years ago I was in a dark place and was incredibly needy – not thinking all too much about how others felt as I was sharing with them my miseries, and it wasn’t until I was the one listening to others, I realized how difficult I had been. But all the while I come to understand people better – including those who are always cranky or bossy – it’s annoying but they have a reason for it. Very often in the past few months, some parents with young ones have been telling me once you have kids it is then you really appreciate your parents. I’m not there yet, but I can already imagine how stressful parenthood – I can understand what others go through without really being in that same situation myself… sometimes to the extent that I know I would not be able to bear it easily; at least not right now. Sometimes I could fear that something could happen to me (e.g. losing everything in an earthquake), but as I become more and more aware of these things everyday, I also realize I should try to live a life without regret. It has been a transitional period for me; making adjustments in my life and pursuing in the direction I feel I can handle; and reading ahead before putting myself into something I feel I’ll regret later. Loved this.
