Discernment has many outcomes
and lots of possibilities.
Sometimes the choice is
between Good or Bad –
the difference
between right and wrong.
Sometimes not so easy
to do what’s correct.
Sometimes the option is
between Good or Good –
opposing goods offer
unique outcomes.
Sometimes the paths diverge
and both cannot be taken.
Sometimes the selection is
between Bad or Bad –
alas poor picks
no good can come of this.
Sometimes when all is not well
abrupt change is called for.
Sometimes the decision is
between Good or Better –
good enough
might be OK.
Sometimes all-in
can’t be achieved
Sometimes judgment is not
between either / or –
rather it’s both / and
abiding unbounded.
Sometimes detachment
includes no exclusion.
Discernment has many outcomes
and lots of possibilities.
