Starting the Day off Right after a Crappy Monday

Hey Guys,

Yesterday was an unusually tough day. I felt like life’s punching bag, just tired and worn out like a Mobilo GAs station toilet on I-95. But today is  a new day I am looking to start it off right and its a very grey day. Loud music isn’t an option. I was looking to read something uplifting, but then I remember no matter the state we are in we are always in The Presence. That actually cheered me up, oddly enough. That realization was my moment of Zen. I dont feel happy, or sad but I am ready to power through the day with joy in my heart and thanksfulness for another day to get it right.

I read this and it got my mind right for the day:

Enjoy

A PREPOSTEROUS GUESS

Friend, you change what I lost

to a surprise gift.

You open my mouth in desire

and hand me the key.

 

A strange, preposterous guess

seems right and righter.

 

I let other fictions go.

I am the contents of your seed bag.

Scatter me over the ground.

 

Let me be quiet

in the middle of this noise.
