Life is a relatively unrelenting Beast:
Ride it or be Eaten.

Experience, that is to say Life,
is a series of implicit lessons
which you have the power and freedom
to accept or to ignore.

I recommend acceptance.

If you don't accept the lessons as learning experiences,
surely you will eventually have to come to terms with them.
Perhaps in this body,  but perhaps not.
Perhaps soon,
perhaps now,
perhaps in a few years,
perhaps in the past.
Perhaps in a dream,
or perhaps in a posthumous DMT trip
(Wouldn't it **** to create for yourself a bad one?!)

There certainly seems to be a cycle
to which we remain bound
until we learn
how to wake up
to what we are
