Today then Tomorrow

By Dawn Oswald


Today

Today I woke up

What a blessing

I ate, I took my medicine, I watched TV, I ate lunch, I watched TV, I took a nap, I ate dinner, I took my medicine, I watched some more TV and then I went to bed Today I repeated that all over again

Today is another day, but it is the same

It’s my ground hog day

Tomorrow brings a new day

I am going to change today

Today I will eat, take my medicine, watch TV or enjoy my new hobby, eat lunch, watch some more TV or take my dog for a walk, eat dinner, take my medicine of course, finishing a new beanie or play a game with my daughter I am changing my life

I will take my life back

Today I woke up

What another blessing

I ate, I took my medicine to stay alive, I went shopping to pamper myself, I went for a walk to be healthy again, I went to lunch with my husband (a date), I took my dog for a walk, I volunteered my time, and I ate dinner then took my medicine I chose to change my life and to do what I want and when I want Today was a good day

Tomorrow will be a better day

Tomorrow only comes once

You can look back on it, but it won’t change

Make your today count

Today, then tomorrow

Tomorrow will come, but how will you fill your day?

What will you do with your tomorrow?

Today is a blessing

Tomorrow can be a better blessing
