Easy come, easy go

patterns of life come and go

Some things in life are easy come, easy go. Last week I ordered online at Starbucks for a cup of Joe and the app said I could pick it up in four minutes. I went there after ten minutes and the coffee was still not there. Finally, after asking several times and 37 minutes later I had my coffee. I told the greeter about it and he whipped up a free $5 Starbucks card for the delay. Not that I asked. But then again, after a few hours, I found that the card had fallen out of my back pocket. Easy it comes, easy it goes.

But most things in life are hard come. Hard-won. And you got to work at it. Sometimes, it is hard-won, easy it goes. Sometimes, hard-won, hard-go. And sometimes there are some easy-won’s and many times there are hard-won’s that don’t go. They stay with you for a while. Serve you a purpose.

Easy or Hard won, easy or hard go, or whether you get to keep it awhile, life is full of surprises. Enjoy things as they come and go.
