Yesterday’s Tomorrow, Today.

A Good Morning to you and yours, Dear Reader!

I’m taking a tiny moment between my icy sips to contemplate this game of life.

(Wait. It’s not a game. A . . .dance? Slip ‘n Slide? Carnival Freak Show? I don’t fuckin’ know.)

ANYWAY.

I think we can all agree that things can be rather overwhelming at times.

And if you’re anything like me, the anxiety of what lies ahead can steal your joy in an instant.

What if I sleep in? What if she took that the wrong way? What if I wreck the car? What if I’m on my way to morbid obesity? What if those ‘beauty marks’ are actually cancer? What if everyone hates me?

What if. What if. What if.

Well Snap, I want to remind you that you’ve already survived your worries. Every tomorrow you’ve worried about has become today, and in turn, yesterday.

Life. goes. on.

Some how, some way, we make it through.

Because every single one of us is stronger than we think.

You got this.

  2. Great! If you are talking about the 😮COVID-19 I tell people do not watch and/or listen to everything going on with this airborne 🛩✈🛫🛬 VIRUS/DISEASE.🧫 I remind them of what happened to people that constantly watched/listened to 911. Limit your time watching/listening! One of these days the world will make up their minds what the heck we are suppose to do.
    For me it’s Be Smart, Be Safe, Stay 6 Feet Apart 📏 or Wash Hands, 🧼Wear Mask, 😷Watch Your Distance!!!! 😷
    Remember it’s your life. Thanks for listening from this old gal! 🌺🌺

  3. I’m the same way; every cough, or feeling a little warm, or having some aches makes me think I have COVID-19…

  4. Great post. When I listen to the experience, instead of my thoughts about experience, I always find I am equal to my own life!

  6. Life sure does go on. The best way to mlve is forward. Living with incurable cancer in the last year has taught me to make the choice to do the very best with the time I have left. Anxiety rears it’s ugly head in moments. But I try not to allow it to dwell for too long after feeling through it. Mostly because whatever time I have left on this roller coaster needs for me, to be full of purpose. I have a weird concept of finding peace with a fulfilling life so I can have no regrets on my death bed. Whatever works right? Adapting to a whole different way of living seems to be the easiest path. Taking action where needed and leaving the rest to divine timing. Well, it’s a work in progress, but it sounds nice written down anyway. ☺💜💖💜
