Poem Commentary

We should never stop building, knowing that which is torn down beyond our control must not get us down or cause us to collapse, but instead should serve to make us stronger.

Under Construction

Under Construction


The best laid plans don’t always go according to schedule.  There are often modifications to be made. Many additions should always be expected. A collapse from time to time should be adjusted too accordingly. 

 

At the end of each day rest should be taken with the feeling of accomplishment. Because all the work that was performed was undertaken with a purpose, and you have established new ground to build upon tomorrow. Put away the blueprint of life until morning light. Don’t worry one minute more about matters that did not go as planned. Accept that you have to tear down sometimes in order to build up.

 

Then replenish your supplies. Go forth with the knowledge and strength of knowing that one brick cemented with the labor of hard work and occasional hardship builds a fortress for the future. If you have the foundation of family and friends to support the framework of life’s constant construction then you can withstand anything.

Ah darn, I so hate when I make an obvious grammatical error, however I am more than grateful when someone is so kind as to point it out. Happy that you found inspiration in this piece, thank you.

Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
