What’s going on inside:
Gentle waves
Lapping at the edges of my heart
Warming it
Softening it
Feathering it /
GodÂ
Love /
What’s going on outside (sight)
Me at the feet of a beach shore
Head down in between my knees
Crying
There is so much joy
He is pleased
He tells me he is pleased /
One day at a time
For every 10 bad days
I hold onto the one good day
For every 3rd bad day, I hold onto the one good day
For every 77th bad day, I’ll hold onto that one good day /
As Annie Dillard sagely said, “how you spend your days… is how you spend your life.”
I will choose to live mine spending it in gratitude.
When you realize we were all/
are all trying our best
You begin to resent a little less
Love a little more.
