The Instructor had her read it to the new students the other day. She is doing very well at Job Corps and is working so hard. I'm very proud of her.

Lessons

By Kelly Barnhart

What are the lessons we so deeply need to learn?

Are they lessons of making things better and bright?

Are they lessons of change making things right?

Are they lessons that teach us today?

Lessons of hope; are they honest and true?

These lessons are what make me and you.

These lessons we learn, are they happy or sad?

Do we love and forgive or do we stay mad?

The lessons in life are future events

Lessons not handled make empty plans

A lesson in life is like two birds in the hand

One lesson to love, one lesson to hate

Which one do we choose? Which one to make?

Lessons not easy, so hard to discern;

No better lesson than the lesson well learned

Learn the lessons the people say

Lessons well learned are easy to replay

When the lesson is learned, you don't make the same plan

You know the one that was messed up, that bad deal of a hand

Lessons in life are awesome at best

because of the change that they make in our hearts.

They are lessons in life that never depart

So learn the lessons with all of your heart
