We write about “today”

 Today

I can only really

please one person 

per day.

Today, I thankfully 

choose me.

Expressing gratitude

as soon as I wake up 

brings me happiness.

Today I plan 

to pay close attention

to all of the

little things.

Today I plan

to observe

without reaction.

I’m better that way.

Today I plan 

to be quiet. 

No talking

will be necessary.

Today, I plan

to listen,

Really listen. 

So, feel

free to speak.

Sometimes I still get angry,

but then I tell myself,

nope, not today.

Call me an idiot, I don’t mind,

would even welcome that.

I like an empty, beginner’s mind.
