YUP!!!! sometimes we have to learn and someone had to find out so we would be the wiser and yet there are still those who prick the lilly finger on the thorn....
It's so true. We forget how much is decided by our choices. As far as finding out which is which, sometimes we do have to try one to know, other times a friend has already tried it and told us. The funny part is that so many times we eat what we know is poison and continue to make ourselves sick.
It would seem that for most people the problem is knowing which are poisonous. If you and I are in the woods searching for mushrooms, would we dare bring them in and eat them without having them identified one way or another as edible and not poisonous? My best.
The trouble sometimes lies ahead when we go down unfamiliar roads. We do have the choices and with that should go an open heart to accept what these choices will bring.
It would have been a lovely world if each could know exactly which berry is poisonous to whom (assuming that we won't swallow a poisonous one in the name of love or whatever ideology).
its about the choices

good one

letsgraph
absolutely!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Fits right in with the discussions over at BC. What a coincidence. ;)
ReplyDeleteBut if you don't which is which and are starving...what then?
ReplyDeletebut... but what if we don't have any other choice? o_O
ReplyDeleteWhat if you can't recognize the good ones ?
ReplyDeleteYOU ALWAYS KNOW< AND THERE IS ALWAYS A CHOICE, unless you do not believe there is and all you manifest is what you do not want
ReplyDeleteTrue, we choose the ones that we perceive to be good for us. Have a great week ahead, NP!

ReplyDeleteOkay ... but how in the world would I ever know which ones I am not to partake?

ReplyDeletePoison berries have a purpose too...they're there to give the birds that feed on them their sustenance...
ReplyDeleteIt surprises me how some people are so tempted by things (and people) that are bad for them. I wish I understood.
ReplyDeleteviva choices!

ReplyDeleteVery true indeed. We must remember that we always have a choice.
ReplyDeleteHey great one really liked it , but the power of choice also gives us freedom to select wrong things by choice.
ReplyDeleteTC
Be selective. Learn what to pick before eating.
ReplyDeleteEnough with the poison berries already! I prefer Eats, Shoots & Leaves anyway.

ReplyDeletetime seems to be running back,most of us chose the harm,
ReplyDeleteit is natural may be that if you have all nice on table,it makes you little naughty,
And they look exactly the same as the healthy berries at times, so be cautious:) Love the aphorism.
ReplyDeleteMany among us can't differentiate edible from poison berries that's why get hurt very often.
ReplyDeleteA lot of people only learn by eating the poison berries. The tragedy is those who get sick and still don't learn
