Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow!

Now is everything!
From the beating of my heart to the beauty around me,
Sharing moments with friends and my loving family,
Helping a stranger or giving a smile,
Just watching the sunset or a blue sunlit sky.
Now is amazing with a good look around
With eyes that can see, what some haven't found.


On to today, what can I do?
Can I change the world between ten & two,
Make someone smile or plant out a tree,
Can I turn off a light, water sparingly
Help out a stranger, lift them up to their feet,
Am I grateful enough to do a good deed?
So today, feel good with what you achieve
Now on to tomorrow & you'll see what I mean.


Well tomorrow you see starts yesterday
Because what you pass out to the world
Comes back, in a very big way
So when you are thinking "it's all about me"
Take a step back and soon you will see
That the best tomorrows mean, you felt good yesterday
You made time for others & helped in some way
So you did change the world with, "it's alright mate"
Pay it forward to others and life truly is great!

To Gather Together Or Not!

Is it reasonable that we seem to expect our family & the people we love to congregate together at these times? Are we truly asking too much in our extremely busy culture to try and achieve this monumental gathering?
I suppose it depends on your perspective! Are you someone who is expected to attend someplace that you'd rather not? Or are you the person expecting others to show?
It can be a nightmare for all concerned! Emotions can run extremely high, either way.
If it's a problem all getting together on the Holiday's then maybe we need to consider other times, after all, fuel goes up every Christmas & airfares. Maybe in these times of respect for personal space, it isn't even reasonable to have a family gathering at all. I certainly hope this is not true.
Personally I love family gatherings. Am passionate about catching up with the people I love, spending time and sharing activities. I find family get together's inspiring & fascinating.
In this crazy world of ours, how do we make it work?
