1 Creation From Me

“Feel Good Now” - a poem

(Click the play button at the top to listen to the poem)

What would you do if this day was your last?

Would you stop worrying about the future?
Could you let go of the past?
Would you walk amongst trees or stroll beneath stars...
Say goodbye to loved ones wherever they are?
Would you dance, sing and play,
And cherish each moment?
Sear each one into memory,
So the universe can own it?
So you take that love with you,
The love that turns you on,
And you don't waste a second,
Because eternity is soon gone?

Because your clock is ticking,
And you know mine is too.
When we keep that in mind,
It's so clear what to do.
We would slow down and savor,
Every gift we are given,
And feel what it feels like,
To truly be living...
Tasting life, here and now,
Tasting life and sweet breath.
What a feeling it is,
To honor a destiny with death.

And imagine what could happen,
If we all took a vow,
To stop waiting to die,
And start feeling good now.


1 Quote from another:

American poet Mary Oliver hits the nail on the head:

“Joy is not made to be a crumb.”

From the poem “Don’t Hesitate”


1 Question to ponder:

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when I ask you this: WHAT BRINGS YOU GREAT JOY?

*Can you find a way to feel good now…and do it today?


If this resonated, pass it along to someone who might need it today. Let’s grow this circle!
