Theme Thursday -- Draft

I Am...

I am incomplete
A work-in-progress
A rough draft

Learning from mistakes of my youth
Learning from mistakes of others
Learning from voices of wiser ones

I am incomplete
A work-in-progress
A rough draft

Growing through observation
Growing through reading
Growing through manipulation by others

I am incomplete
A work-in-progress
A rough draft

Developing wisdom
Developing empathy
Developing generosity

I am incomplete
A work-in-progress
A rough draft

I am an experiment
Created by the creator of life
Made to learn, grow, develop, and love.

I am incomplete
A work-in-progress
A rough draft…

I like the way you put this. I suppose if the draft of life was complete, we'd having nothing more to do.

Nicely done. I do wonder, though, how much we learn from the mistakes of others as opposed to our own. :)

well. we are constantly evolving, but a draft? Ok- if that leads you to a worthy work of art, i.e. YOU!

What you've said is so true. Once the draft is complete, nothing is left. Great piece you've got here Jessie.

I think that we are all basically works in progress!

To quote a sign I saw long ago

Be patient
God isn't finished with me yet.

After having read your 55 I scrolled down and found this gem of writing. I adore it. In my AA and Al-Anon programs we speak often of "being a work in progress". This spoke loudly to me. Loved it.
