Tomorrow...



Tomorrow... I will perform all my prayers on time. I will start on a diet and stick to it. I will be a more attentive wife, a more loving mother. I will listen. Actually stop what I am doing and listen when my kids recount their adventures after a day at school. I will savour the silence with my husband’s hand cradled in my own and listen to the sound of his breathing. I will laugh with abandon and surrender to tears as the need arises. I will remember the good more often and forget the bad more easily. I will move out of the shadow of myself and truly be.
Tomorrow…

Nice thoughts, and I hope you can make them a reality. If not all at once, then one at a time - little by little - until they're all in place.
