Ignorance is Bliss

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I look back at times when not knowing
made everything okay. The sense
of looking forward was all I needed.

Accomplishment was just
an arms reach away...so close,
but just out of reach.

I was happiest then

So many wonderful things
still to come...so many, many "firsts"
just about to crest over the horizon...

I could see just enough to want to go on

Have I been running around in circles?

Photographs upon the walls say no
resumes and job titles speak otherwise
yet, I feel....unfinished....
so much yet to do, but how?
When?! WHEN?!


Yes....ignorance IS bliss
