Tomorrow Will Take Care of Itself

Today is all we need worry about
Tomorrow will take care of itself
Yesterday is gone, no changing that
Good advice for our mental health

So many factors can influence us
And create a mood we can't hide
Being strong in the face of adversity
Shows strength of character inside

The news of the day is ugly at best
Depressing as world news can be
It can make or break the kind of day
So ignore it and set your heart free

Intestinal fortitude is what we need
Nothing more extraordinary than that
To face head on the challenges to come
Move forward, let nothing distract

Before closing I feel I must add
It's in everyone's power to succeed
Intestinal fortitude and a strong desire
Once you have planted the seed

Today is all we need worry to about
Tomorrow will take care of itself

What inspiration you create in this poem. Jack I realise that it is copy written, but could I have your permission to send it to my Granddaughter please ? She lives 7 thousand miles away and little "pick me ups" like your beautiful poem are as if "heaven sent" to her. I know she would love it as much as her Grandma does.
