We always plan and hope and dream so many thoughts, so many schemes. Yet what if we aren't given it tomorrow, gift of not done yet? So quickly might it disappear the dreams are gone-there's no New Year. Perhaps today should matter more and live it like never before. How sad to be of sudden gone and wonder if we did it wrong.. |

CatalinaMoon~ 'Perhaps today should matter more and live it like never before.' A lovely thought ... And Vicky and I have decided that we're both sooooooooo good at procrastination ... that we can live today AND what we don't get done will carry us right into tomorrow ! ! (and it often does ...) Right Vicky ???? LOL ! Enjoyed the read~ *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Great verse Sandra! Our todays should mean more. We should consider what it would be like if it were the last. Thankful when it's not, but it just might be. Sincerely, Regina |

I've been contemplating this very thing for days now and it's driving me a bit crazy. Kind of nice to know that I'm not alone...in the contemplation, that is. |

"tomorrow, gift of not done yet?" Love this insightful line. Odd, our sense of time and tomorrow. |

What a beautiful reflection. How sad to be of sudden gone And wonder if we did it wrong Lovely. Enjoyed it greatly. Made me think-don't take today for granted. Tracey If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

If yesterday's a memory (hopefully a good one) and tomorrow's a vision/goal/dream, then neither really exist, do they? But if today is simply bridging the two and can never truly be analyzed for its having passed before a conclusion is reached, with what are we really left...? (I'll take a stab at this question and offer: "integrity"...) -MVS "It's all in the details -- the Big Picture always takes care of itself." |

Powerful message......said so wonderfully. Today matters more but one should not forget the morrow.....because today's deeds might very much determine tomorrow's joys.... Thank you ******************* |
