SOMEDAY SEEMS LIKE A LONELY WORD
A DAY TO NEVER COME.
TOMORROW IS LIKE A FUTURE WISH
THAT NEVER COMES TO SOME.

BUT YESTERDAY IS A WORD THAT LIVES
FOREVER IN OUR DREAMS.
THE PAST IS LIKE A PICTURE
TO DWELL UPON IT SEEMS

SO RARELY DO WE REALLY LIVE
RIGHT IN THE HERE AND NOW.
OUR MIND IS ALWAYS FILLED WITH THINGS
THAT NEVER MATTER SOMEHOW.

FOR THERE WILL COME A TIME TO US
WHEN WE WISH THAT WE COULD LIVE
ALL THE MOMENTS WE LET PAST
WHEN WE HAD THE TIME TO GIVE.

Oh dear Lucie! This really hits home to me right now....I'm really bad about dwelling on things I could have done better, all the yesterdays.....Sadly, today slips by unnoticed, as I've spent all my energy in regret....Then tomorrow, I'll regret letting today slip by unnoticed!! It's like a domino effect ! Wow, you've really given me something to think about.....

Can I suggest something? It might be a bit friendlier on the eyes if it weren't in CAPS !! (grin) It's like you're screaming your message out! Just get carried away with exclamation points if you want to seem LOUD !! he he That's what I do....****blowing kisses Thank you for stopping me in my tracks to see where I'm falling short in my thoughts.....you truly made my day TODAY brighter!!! Luv ya girl!
