I didn’t want to get out of bed this morning
but I did
I didn’t want to go for a walk
but I did
I didn’t want to go for a swim
but I did
I didn’t want to donate blood
but I did
I didn’t want to go to the optometrist
but I did
I didn’t want to go to the chemist
but I did
I didn’t want to do anything today
but I did
On my way home I drove by a cemetery.
Most of those folks didn’t want to die
but they did.
So the lesson for today is.
Words can wait and thoughts delay,
But only deeds will clear the way.
Between our breath and final rest,
Actions show what mattered best.
I did want to get laid today
but I didn’t
Oh well there’s always tomorrow.
This is good. The way you opened it and then drove your message home. Nice xoxo
Thanks Fia….some days for whatever strange reason seem more difficult than others but you learn over time that it will pass…..I’m good by the way.💋
LOL great ending, Peter. There’s definitely a lesson in this and you detail it perfectly. Thanks for reminding us each day, and each deed counts.
This is such a solid message. And that ending…fantastic landing!
That there is
Spectacular….
Thanks Mary……you’re on my heroes list.

The number of times I wake up in the morning and complain about how I don’t want to do whatever thing it is I have to do that day. This reminded me so much of that. It’s all about the choices we make every day, at least to control the things we can control.
And the twist at the end… really wraps it up in an interesting way.
Thanks for reading🙏
