'reflect'

You've walked this road so many times Half the time you don't even notice The little changes You don't notice the differences Even if it feels like nothing changed It is guaranteed that nothing remains the same Your smile might be hidden today Who knows tomorrow it might return Don't cling to morbid thoughts Don't drown in muddled water Of past mistakes Past regrets You are not always wrong, Look around at all the things You did right... Reflect Embrace what might still happen We don't have vision or surety of tomorrow All you have is today ©125210122013

Reflecting on things like what you are embracing within your poem is well worth the time and energy! Things in the past do reflect that there are good times as well as the bad...and that we shouldn't dwell on the bad and should live for the good! What a tremendous poem here my friend, such a grand piece, Great Work!!
