I first read this Gibran poem as a teen, decades ago. It's truth and veracity resonate just as loudly now that I'm 66 and have a near adult grandchild. Generation upon generation, we either stiffen our bows or allow them more flexibility, sending arrows to find their true path. Great share.

I almost didn't stop to read this. I thought to myself, "Oh, that is one of my favorites! But I already know it."

And then I wondered where I was in a hurry to be, what thing I needed to do that was more important than re-reading a poem that I know that I love.

And so here I am. Re-reading, then re-reading again.
