You know those days When you get out of bed And you feel miles away From the #existentialdread
Those days when you are drunk on feeling 'good' The times you step back and you can appreciate All the "small" things that have afforded you this mood The moments you consider your daily 'routine'--and hesitate
When you find yourself brimming with the vigor of being alive Aware and astute and considerate--humbled by all beauty Grateful of your purchase--it's in this which you realize All your happiness and those who make that their duty
It's these days, the days when we feel our best They are the profit, the fruits of our labor From when we didn't give up--when put to the test By our family, our friends, a stranger--our neighbor
So, next time when you are on the brink Of being unkind or making a stink Take a moment to stop--and think! Of that awesome person who fixed your bathroom sink
And let them know:
You love them, the whole world over
Another classic 'Me' thing. Again, I don't really know how old this is. I wrote another piece that contrast this experience with where I am at now, I'll let you figure out which one. Recent occurrences reconnected me with some simple truths and I am behooved to share some of my lighter works from a time forgotten.
