As I walked a mile with Pleasure;
She chattered all the way.
But left me none the wiser
For all she had to say.
I walked a mile with Sorrow
And ne’er a word said she;
But oh, the things
I learned form her
When Sorrow walked with me!

This is so true of Life, friend. This is how we learn things ‘the hard way,’ sometimes. Thanks for this reminder of the Robert Browning poem!
