We don’t often think about it…but deep inside…we know
how we are a different person than we were a day ago.
Each new day brings new experiences that somehow find a way
to subtly change
or drastically alter…
who we were yesterday.
From the time we watch the sun rise until the time we see it set
our hair has grown another day longer…
perhaps a new person we have met
Perhaps we were courageous….
perhaps we overcame our fears
Perhaps we shared some laughter…
Perhaps we shed some tears…
Perhaps we witnessed a baby’s birth
or the first time one walked or talked…or cried.
Perhaps we held somebody’s hand
the moment when they died.
Perhaps we learned a little something…
Perhaps we realized there is still so much to know…
Perhaps we are a little wiser today…than we were a day ago.
And if we’re lucky that wisdom will seep into our souls
our minds
our hearts…
as we become a different person
when tomorrow starts.
