It's Saturday, it's fall, Thanksgiving is coming next month, then the holidays will be here, and over and a new year begins. Today is just as good a day to start turning things around if you are going down the wrong road as any day.
Stand for Something by Beth Grimm October, 2018
Life is short, we hear that a lot
so what do you do with it?
You can let it direct you
or you can be the director.
You get to choose.
I mean
you don’t get to choose what happens to you
but you do get to choose what you do with it
how you respond.
What you do with your time and thoughts.
How much you listen.
How much you talk.
You have a stake
In what road you take.
So stand for something
Yes, I could say
stand UP for something
find a cause
make a difference.
But it doesn’t even have to be that hard.
Stand for something
leave a meaningful mark
make your life count.
Go, do, create
illustrate.
Make a mark.
Don’t be remembered as
that person who…
Well I don’t know
what did they do?
Be good, be kind, find something
Or someone, to love,
give, donate, share with others,
write, tell, make up stories
it doesn’t have to be
about anything monumental
every day life counts for something.
Everyone has one until they don’t.
It’s quite simple.
Stand for something.
