things are the way that they are.

things are the way that they are,
simply because there is no other way,
at least the way that things need to be,
the way that they ought to be,
the way that we need to dream them into being.
in the meantime,
there are just some things that cannot be changed,
no matter how much that we want them to change.
wisdom comes in,
when we are able to know the difference.
