May 28 Med...
To self: Today, be mindful of Today.
We worry don't we? About the future. About things we can't control. About our children and their children. About what others think.
Think about today. Be in the moment. Consider the next five to ten minutes as your future. It doesn't mean you have to dwell on it, but instead, sortof let the future come to you. Perhaps even be less in control, or controlling of others.
That little inner-voice which I perceive as God, will speak...that is if we just listen.
He, or She, knows.

Worry Not*
by D. A. Brooks
What holds the morrow
when light makes way
And shadows say,
"Good day, old friend. Good day."
What worries we
are want to see
to touch, to stray
from us today. All day. Each day.
Our senses take
hold, us to break
our spirits weaken,
He sees our beacon. Him we're seeking.
Free us from all
concern is our flaw
at times most vulnerable
Worries innumerable. Forgettable.
So allow to forget
without much regret
and think on the now
on this be my vow. Too, thou vow.

Matthew 6:34...
Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
