I was inspired to write this because of a few conversations I had been having last year
Don’t waste today looking back to the past Having regrets about things you cannot change Don’t waste today looking towards the future And missing out on moments you will never regain Don’t waste today fretting because you were irrational yesterday Forgive yourself, learn from the moment and move on Don’t waste today on selfish unkind thoughts Give love from your heart even if those around you are not giving Don’t waste today arguing, fighting and being nasty to people If you gave them a chance you could be good friends Don’t waste your time trying out do each other You are missing out on your own life Don’t waste today trying to be someone your not Be honest, sincere and true to yourself Don’t waste today trying to create perfect happiness Recognise what you have not what you want Don’t waste today judging those around you or Feeling jealous of what they appear to have Don’t waste today comparing yourself to others Sometimes what you see, is not always how it is Don’t waste today mulling over mistakes Admit them, apologise, your human, mistakes we all make Don’t waste today missing the beauty in this world See the trees, the flowers, the plants and the children at play Don’t waste today for it may be the last You don’t want to look back on your life with regret Don’t waste today it is the memories for your tomorrows And the memories you leave in many hearts © Glenda P |
