Monday
Start right where you are
Change direction if needed
Your future is yours
What if
Make a wish today
Then get out of your own way
Begin to grant it
Hope
Benefits of hope
You can lose it completely
Then find it again
Here
Here on shaky ground
Hanging on by a thin thread
Just treading water
Window
Look out the window
Decide what you want to see
Now enjoy the view
Thinker
Been thinking too much
At least I think I have been
Better think again
Tired
Need to fight off stress
Make a wish in the morning
See if it comes true
Cat Dreams
Cats have a tenth life
A parallel universe
Made of daily dreams
Smile
Positive people
Have often endured great pain
They smiled to survive
Dating Advice
Never follow up
Guys who like you will reply
It is that simple
No shrugs
Put the string away
Be with him or not with him
Just rule out limbo
Grumpy Cat
Your beautiful frown
Turned all of ours upside down
Our lost joy was found
Grumpy Cat
Such a good kitty
You made us laugh at ourselves
What a gift you were
Monday afternoon
A walk in the sun
On a Monday afternoon
Has magic in it
Answers
I got distracted
Then the answer came to me
Funny how that works
Goals
Knowing what you want
Reveals all the obstacles
You can overcome
Life
You only get one
Decide what chances to take
Live the life you want
Worry
Nerves thrive on inaction
Doing fends off worrying
Get to work today
Try
Just decide to try
See what miracles unfold
You may be surprised
