One does not know what a day will bring Still we are confident people Often dwelling on the wrong things We find later that a friend has died in an auto crash Very viable yesterday, now gone An earthquake in Mexico City kills over 200 people What were they doing before this happened. A president speaks out for America and American exceptionalism The leftists find fault in every word Our friend in Israel calls it the best speech ever at the United Nations We pray for peace Are critical of our neighbor Do not stand up to be counted Afraid of a commitment Tomorrow we may be gone What chances did we miss out on? We know how precious the gift of life is We fail to live to the fullest Who do we hurt? Does anyone know what we do or don’t do? Are we living to please others? Or is what we do pleasing to others? I listen to the talking Expressions of feelings of disappointment about events I may say nothing because I have a different view Am I a coward or just pragmatic? Why argue when you know there will be no winners Do good works Encourage others One never knows how many chances are left What will tomorrow bring? Do the impossible today Regrets will be few Stanski September 7, 2021 ^
