Wisdom is not enough to calm your fears Love can be tough and won’t dry your tears If you see rain look forward to sun Despite the pain look forward to fun Know time is ticking like a clock There’s no notice when it will stop Be a good steward to others and self Living in the moment as a great help Find your niche and thrive in it Embrace life live it as you see fit Listen to the divine voice that guides Being kind is a choice that is wise When you look at another face See it with kindness and in grace Know we all have faults we are not perfect Even if lost we can be found and we’re worth it

Words to live by. When I saw this prompt, I wondered how one might approach the theme of wisdom and fear. I thought it would be the hardest of the prompts, but you did a great job. Congrats!
