Same and Different

How often
in our curious
attempts
to understand
the innermost
workings
of the brain
do we forget
the soul standing
in front of us?
Differences
labeled
as deficits
listed in order
of our perceived
preferences-
Yes, good comes
from understanding
but danger arises
when discoveries
serve only to
categorize
without helping us
understand we each
hold a purpose-
Oh, that we
could grasp
our differences
thru the lens
of our sameness

  1. I like this, Kelley. Reflecting these lines back to you.

    We had more unexpected snow so school was canceled today. I am so grateful for extra sleep.
    Take care.
