Finding Humor in the Hard Stuff

Resistance

When I find my body feels “punky,”
It spreads, and my mind can get funky.
I move very slow.
My thoughts can get low.
Remind me … I’ll get back to spunky!

Celebrating Life

When you come upon your next Birthday,
Please think upon it as a “Gateway.”
Just what will there be—
To live and to see?
To dig in and know, or just survey?

Choosing My Perspective

The day isn’t what you expected—
The time seems adversely affected.
Expanding your view,
Of what you could do,
Reveals things as “wisely selected.”

Trails and Trials

Whatever your task that needs doing,
Whatever the trail that you’re viewing,
When ending the day,
May you get to say,
“It really was worth the pursuing.”

Recommit, Do Not Quit

Task’s lost momentum, I think I’ll quit.
Inner self will surely throw-a-fit.
So what can I do,
To see the task through?
Now is the time I can recommit.

The Danger of Assuming

What happens when you are assuming?
When you’re sure you know, you’re presuming?
Your not checking facts,
Adversely impacts,
A chance that might not be resuming.

Where Is The Blessing In Bellyaching?

My body and mind had conspired,
Which made me feel achy and tired.
I found that the best,
Was hours of rest.
Seems just what my psyche required.

Power of Unsolicited Help

Have you had a time of “help-needing?”
When you thought you soon would be pleading,
For someone to do
A big job for you?
But help came! Your worry receding.
