Happens for the good.

With every loss
I turn a better man,

Seeing clearer
Learning
That wouldn’t have come in any other way

Then shedding as I move on

A piece of rotten me
Blinded by ego
Seeing what was not there
Hearing what was unsaid
Evaluating only by my yardstick
Stuck in the muck of my own making!

Whatever happens
Even when that makes heart bleed
Burn and break me

Make me

A better man.
Whatever happened in the past, it happened for the good; Whatever is happening, is happening for the good; Whatever shall happen in the future, shall happen for the good only.
