Just some thoughts...

Every day, as I write Poetiquejustis, I pray it will be a blessing to someone.
Today, I hope it is you.

Off Base

I wouldn't know how to handle serenity if somebody 
handed it to me on a plate.  
Dusty Springfield



Serenity takes work
which seems like a contradiction in terms
But you have to just take a swing at what's bothering you

So, what is messing with your serenity?
See it coming at you?  
Don't stand there and let it fly over home plate!



Take a swing at those thoughts!

Go ahead- take a crack at it


Another annoying email?





Sah- wing, batter, batter, batter

crack

The thought of a coworker who only cares about making his way to the top at your expense?


crack - take that thought and hit it out of the park!


Step in a puddle and get your shoes muddy?

Those you'll have to dry off....


But letting it bug you...nah!
crack   




Hit it over the fence!

junk mail


noisy neighbors


to do lists that will not get done



 
The way the world is looking this week


crack                                                 crack                                          crack






see, isn't that better?
Serenity 
just take a crack at it, and suddenly, you are in the game
And that's poetiquejustis
