People's Poetry

By K. C. Boone, MSFE

Every person tells a story by their actions and characters. It is the wise who take the time to marvel at the story being told in order to pass it along to others. All who pass through our lives offer us lessons untold, so it is our job to learn from the lessons that we may pass on the favor.

Let us not discount any of the lessons given us, even if we find them the most difficult. Hindsight demonstrates that the most beneficial lessons are the ones which were hardest to learn.

Recognize that each person has a gift to give. Each gift enhances your life and adds to your wisdom and teaching resource. Some teach love, some teach hate, some teach empathy and some teach sympathy.

As the years pass, be grateful for the gifts given by the passers through your life.

The Scribe Described This scribe did not intend to be, yet was somehow chosen. Destiny played its part, shifting me to we, from I to all. I have always had a great curiosity about God and had studied much on the subject, but my primary focus was my career. Learning about God took on a new twist when God inspired me to write the words heard. “Hearing” is not how the words actually come, for it is more of a “knowing.” When the mind is quieted, the emptiness is filled with inspired knowledge. I write as and when instructed, either with pen or keyboard. The vehicle does not matter, but the content is to be kept sacred. Always, I understand that I must keep the sanctity of the gift given. Regardless of my own judgments about the content, I understood that the content is not about or for me. The content is to be presented as received, for the benefit of those seeking to have their questions answered. I cannot profess to be specially qualified, except that I am able to simply bring the words received to print. My credentials really do not offer credence to the work, except that they are verifiable and do demonstrate the normality of my life. I do hold degrees in accounting and education and have thirty years business experience.

As I willfully concede

To have been given gifts

Of these three fine gents
