Day One

 We can start over, whenever we want.

It’s a wonderful opportunity that we have. 

Taking it for granted will lead anyone down a dark path.


I might not always be aware, what good I release in the world. 

But I will try to savor the small moments.

What else can I do to make it feel like there’s a meaning to all this madness?


I don’t imagine, I’m the only one with self-doubt.

In fact, I am painfully aware how it infects all of us,

 at some point in our lives.


I’ve gotten knocked down to size, 

yet again.

It hurts, more than I can describe.


Maybe it is possible to get out on the other side better? 

I sure hope I can do the impossible for the millionth time.


That is why,

this is Day One.

Without hurting any one, or myself. I know I am not perfect, in any way. No one is. Really.  But, I also find it hard to imagine a world where there is less pain.
