Living One Day at a Time It holds to its capacity, balanced by gravity, and force in-between… Force unseen… Pushing up to balance pushing down. Pushing the opposite: a smile a frown… Happy is not sad apart from the force to seize its place save the opposite will the heart be clad… A somber bandage holds to its capacity a hope for healing and soon, with time its leaning… Phases of the moon: one force unseen save the ocean’s blue and green. What is a year without a month? And a month without a week? And a week without a day? All but a struggle to obtain another… Every second of life is for living, apart from struggle and strife Choose peace and joy, and life one day at a time.  Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: |

Good advice, JL! I think there are many unseen forces around trying to balance our lives and I feel for them. Whew! What a job to have considering what we humans are like. One day at a time is good - it gets us there eventually. |

..."Happy is not sad apart from the force to seize its place save the opposite will the heart be clad…"... JL, Sometimes the clarity, with which your heart beats, is simply stunning. I enjoyed every line here...and this one, rendered me speechless. TD |
