Sometimes.


Sometimes we forget that there are people watching

Us (I mean our actions).

Sometimes we forget we are letters read on a daily basis.

In these letters we are sometimes the headings, the lines,

The chapters, the verses, the comas, the full stops which

Are all important.

Sometimes we forget that there are those who take serious

What we do slightly and think there hasn't been any impact made.

Sometimes we forget that the power to do good to others

Lies within us and when we release it we are bound to be

Affected by the same.

Sometimes we ignore the fact that whatever we sow is what

We reap in life

Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes.

Each Morning When I Open My Eyes

Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn’t arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I’m going to be happy in it.  – Groucho Marx
