Wisdom Learned: A Senryu 

Early in the morning remembering the actions I regret. Unwilling to learn from my elders caused so much heartache. Eventually I learned this bit of wisdom: 

  • a wise person learns from their mistakes
  • a wiser person means from the mistakes of others
  • the wisest person learns from the successes of others

Also I figured out that I learn more by listening than talking. 

So, I’m getting there. The journey is ongoing.
