Tomorrow

I will put on my smile tomorrow because I simply cannot do it today.

I will call my friends tomorrow, because they are not as important to me today.

I will see a sunset tomorrow, missing it today.

I will pick a flower tomorrow, not picking it today.

I will lend a helping hand to humanity tomorrow, because my hands are full today.

I will make a difference tomorrow, because I have indifference today.

I will be full of joy tomorrow, because I have too much sadness today.

I will accomplish my goals tomorrow, I will set them aside for today.

And I will live my life tomorrow, not living it today.

And when I grow old and sick tomorrow, I will be thinking of today.

To me this poem is exactly the way we lead our lives, ignoring what is truly important.
