I HAVE CHOICES
ON HOW TO LIVE MY LIFE


I can be constantly
Looking over my shoulder,
Traveling the path of my past,
That is cobbled, with much joy,
Many mistakes,
Reasonably few regrets.
Living rather precariously unsatisfied
In a world of ‘what if’?
and ‘if only’.

There again I can exist in a future,
That is unknown,
Hoping for a happiness,
That is overshadowed by a fear
Of history yet to be written.

Or I can live in THE NOW,
I can appreciate the beauty
And the blessings of each day
As I am, accordingly gifted them.
With thankfulness
I choose the latter,
Grateful to have a choice.

I am an enigma, even unto myself.
A puzzle unsolved, a mystery maybe until beyond death.  ©das

Seize the day!!!  I admit that I find myself falling at times into the shadows of yesterdays or being over anxious for what may come, but as you have written here, I believe very nicely, is that the correct attitude should be for us all to live each day at a time. A good job expressing your thoughts here and a very good reminder, I believe, to seize each day.
