Today, Dear Day, I'm Going to Live You




Dear day,



It was tough yesterday. Tough to live. Hard to breathe.



But you’re a new day.



You’re ahead of me.



And I’m going to live you.



I’m going to squeeze the life out of you today, dear day.



I’m going to care.



And I’m going to laugh.



Give.



Smile.



Stand up when I fall down.



Walk.... Run.



Breathe the air.



I’m going to appreciate the simple today. And lose myself in
something pleasurable.




I’m going to listen. To God. And to my friends.



Did I say I’d stand up if I fall down?



Oh yes.



Not only that. I’ll laugh.



Laugh at the trivialness of what used to upset me.



Today, dear day, I’m going to live you.



Poem based on the 16 Habits of Exuberant Human Beings by Kate Bratskier
