Lucky 7

why is life such a mystery, why is it we just
don't know what tomorrow will bring, if you
read a mystery novel and are anxious to see
the "who done it" who can just go to the
last chapter, and its all there in black and white,
the mystery is solved, the "who done it" is now
known, and your mind is at ease, you are now
prepared, you can know think clear thru the rest
of the book and can "react" accordingly

as we wake each new day, we wake thinking the
day will be as any other, as the day's goes on
the mystery starts to happen, whatever the mystery
is, we just roll with it, not really thinking about it,
we are just doing what our mind has taught us to do
"react" the problem is we react without really
thinking, because we were not prepared, there was
no script, no instructions, no advance notice

i know it is impossible to know what tomorrow will
bring, however, how much easier would it be to know,
to be prepared, to think it thru, before the reaction
thoughts will be in order, and the mind set is ready

when i find myself, in a unknown mystery, i do the
same, i just react to later think, why did i do that?
the question will reel in my mind, for hours into days
and i know if i was prepared i would have not reacted
that way, if only i had that script!

but this is not to be, the mysteries of life will continue
daily, and we will react no matter what the mystery is
i can only hope in my daily life lessons, that i learn from
my "why did i do that" and take this lesson and store it
for future use

it is i who always says "learn as you go" for life has no
script, no instructions, as times its a crap shoot and one
has to hope you get that lucky 7
the mysteries will continue as each new day forms
as we can't go to the last chapter
to see "who done it" i guess that is why
life is a mystery with a unknown ending
