LIVE IN THE NOW

living in the now

you can only live
in the now
now

yesterday
has gone
as a wow

tomorrow
may come
but
not ever as a tomorrow
but again another now

so remember
the now
and
live it as you may
some how

just enjoy now

This is the message of the world, if we live our lives in the now, the worry about tomorrow, how to survive, how to leave a better tomorrow would fizzle out of our minds. We must be contented with what we have. We must appreciate life no matter how little we gain from it.

Very informative!

When someone reads your work
And responds, please be courteous
And reply in kind, thanks.

I am reminded of a thing I used to say as a kid.
I am not sure if I made it up myself or heard it somewhere.

"Tomorrow never gets here, because when it gets here, it turns into Today
and when it is past, it is Yesterday. Nice little poem about how we should live for today.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.
