All of life is
to prepare
to anticipate
without sitting on the edge
but being aware
that life could be ruled
by others
~ people or situations ~
a naive thought,
yet one that offers
strength and courage to choose the life that is given.
Today will shape tomorrow,
and leave an interesting path
through the yesterdays of life.
“We may run, walk, stumble, drive or fly, but let us never lose sight
of the reason of the journey or miss a chance to see a rainbow on the way.”
~ Gloria Gaither, songwriter
When I let my thoughts
roam free
some wander into tomorrow
~ into the green grass
of a nebulous future,
feeling my mind’s toes curling
into that distant moist wet grass
with a longing
that pulls me away from today.
“You must give everything to make your life as beautiful
as the dreams that dance in your imagination.”
~ Roman Payne, novelist and poet
Emotions will never reach tomorrow
~ too fluid unless we hang on
The dips and the dives of
those slippery ‘feels’ change
with the tides of each day
The tides of tomorrow will be different
maybe calm or steady or wild
so belief in yourself and
the life that you live is
the rudder that steers you through life.
“Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.”
~ Arthur Ashe
