The Privilege

Oh New Day,

What events you have in store for me I ignore

But

Whatever they are - be good or bad - I welcome them with

Open arms

For

You have granted me the greatest privilege of all:

To be alive!

Ah, so poetically sweet and magic words that reveal how we should all feel every single day, Demetrios. Every single hour of every single day!
