The baby learns how to walk
The toddler learns how to play
The child learns how to share
The preteen learns about cruelty
The teenage learns how to survive
The adult learns about love
and also,
about loss.
The Parent learns how to sacrifice everything
The Grandparent learns how to be a child again.
Then we die,
but before we go,
we realize,
nothing was really learned at all.
-C.H.
