Let It Go

When you wake in the morning
And your heart is not on fire,
All joy gone 
With it hope and desire.
Don’t fret
Or cling on to despair,
It could be only a feeling 
Just a passing care.
If so don’t worry 
About that feeling today,
Just drop it in the river of life
And let it flow away.

Very wise words. We cannot change the past, so let go of mistakes and regrets and get on with life.
