The day has ended, we
are into the night; the strands of daylight whisked away and replaced
by an unseeable black, which covers all in bright darkness. What
have you achieved? How have you used your hours awake? Did you smell
the breath of the sea as you dived off a cliff into the swirling
ocean? Did you ride a muscular horse bareback as he galloped roughly
through the desert, clinging to his mane? Did you understand someone
and see who they really are; did you glance inside their soul and
view the true definition of your complicated relationship? Or did you
fall madly in love with someone whom you should for everything it's
worth despise, but their beautiful eyes just got you and you felt
some crazy urge to kiss them? Did you learn a true and unyielding
fact that blew your brain into helpless smithereens, and left you
begging for life to make sense again? Did you break a promise, walk
away from a commitment, or make a devastating change? Did you steal
someone's glory, did you bask in some form of shame, did you walk a
tight tight rope across someone's conscience? Did you make some small
correction, or alter some small fear; did you make some small
objection or did you waltz into a fire? Did you use this day, this
God given day and the life you have been blessed with? Or did this
day, like the others, get snatched away by your immediate and
dominant pleasures, as you watched things pass you by, miserably
moping on account of nothing happening? Use the day and your humanity
as you take the air from this planet like gold from a piggy bank;
make all the pain worthwhile, because this calm and pleasant
contentment and this glorious beautiful world is there for you, when
you're ready for it. Make the next day and the next the ones that
count.
