Day 30: When Times are Tough

Imagine you are staring at the dark end of a shotgun,

the man cocks back the hammer

Imagine the doctor just came into the room,

the file is thin because you have maybe a month left

Imagine skydiving with your spouse,

and halfway down both parachutes are trapped

Now,

Imagine the man dropping the gun and walking away

Imagine the next test results coming back negative

Imagine the parachute finally releasing

One more day

One more moment

One more thought of love for all that you are and that is

Look around at all the fragility and the beauty and the perfection of life

Imagine living with that appreciation

Every

Single
