Only The Sum Total

We are only the sum total of our life's experiences as the wise one does say
What you learn in your very young years makes you the person you are today
Our early childhood mentors in our lives a huge part does play
And we learn as we live life seems to work in this way
And from life we never stop learning until the day we do die
Just a fact of our existence and fact never lie
Knowledge to the mind enlightenment can bring
Yet if we did live forever we would not know everything
Yes so much to learn and in so little time
We seem to age quickly beyond our physical prime
A happy lived childhood to a happy life often does lead
Of abused children who as adults are happy one does not often hear of or read
Despite what some say we all do not receive from life what is our due
And that we become the sum total of our lives experiences may well be true.
