Reflections of Yesterday

Often times, we reflect on yesterday. Thinking what could be, if only as the saying goes. What does the footprints left in the sand say about you? What stories and paths are footprints of roads once traveled? If the waves of the sea could erase one set of footprints you have taken, how would you choose? How deep of impression did you make? Often impressions are made where they are barely seen or they can pierce deeply into the sand to leave a lasting impression.



Reflections of yesterday

Thinking of what was
What could be
And what is to become
Living this life in the present
And not reflecting on yesterday
Or
Anticipating in this life what will be tomorrow
Reflecting on circumstances of pain and sorrow
Anticipating the future
And all the good things to come
Delighted to see the birth of a new day
Possibilities to correct wrongs
Not looking back
And focusing on what has been
But what is to become
Creating an extension for
Promise
Solace,
And growth.
