TODAY

        Outside my window,

        a new say I see.

        And only I can determine

        what kind of day it will be.

        It can be busy and sunny,

        laughing and gay.

        Or boring and cold,

        unhappy and gray.

        My own state of mind

        is the determining key,

        For I am only the person

        I let myself be.

        I can be thoughtful

        and do all I can to help,

        Or be selfish

        and think just of myself.

        I can enjoy what I do

        and make it seem fun,

        Or gripe and complain

        and make it hard on someone.

        I can be patient with those

        who may not understand,

        Or belittle and hurt them

        as much as I can.

        But I have faith in myself

        and believe what I say,

        And I personally intend

          to make the best of each day!
