You Learn From Life

You learn from life something new every day
And that you never stop learning seems true for to say
And the more you do learn the more you realize
That you do know so little this not a surprise

You have been learning from life before you learned how to crawl
And an unenlightened person is the know all
For the know all has an over inflated sense of self esteem
And has nothing to learn from life it does seem

The years do pass quickly beyond our physical prime
And so much to learn of in so little time
We learn as we live is how it seems to be
And time will not wait for you it did not wait for me

Wise words i remember from decades ago
Those who think they are clever may well not be so
Their own praises they may feel happy to sing
But of how clever they really are is another thing

You learn as you live true to life does remain
This is something that one does not need to explain
And the more you do learn the more you come to realize
That you do know so little this is not a suprise.
