Your Door to Tomorrow is Today

 

The doors of wisdom are never shut

Benjamin Franklin

You hold the key

You know the combination

You can throw the bolt

And ...

step into life

So-what are you waiting for?

The door to the future is yours to open

That is wisdom

And that's poetiquejustis

"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you."

Matthew 7:7

Getting Steamed

 

You've got to outlast yourself

Clint Eastwood

Have you ever felt like just pulling off on to the shoulder of life

Tipping your hat over your eyes and just going to sleep?

 

Or leaning against a tree and contemplating the clouds

forever               

seemed like a good idea?

 

Have your dream has lost its steam?

Not the case at all!

You just needed a rest!

You are just getting going!

You are powering up!

Getting in gear!

Ready to finish the race!

That's how you do it!

and that's poetiquejustis

And let us not grow weary of doing good,

 for in due season we will reap, 

if we do not give up.

Galatians 6:9

Today in Your History

 

Live out your imagination

not your history

Arthur Bryan

History is great

Some of my favorite people can be found there

It's a nice place to visit

But it is not a place to live

Living takes place in your today

 You are not who you were

and the world is not what it was

so

And that's poetiquejustis

Don’t ask, 

“Why were things better in the old days than they are now?”

 It isn’t wisdom that leads you to ask this!

Ecclesiastes 7:10

On The Road Again

 

Little by little one travels far

J R R Tolkien

How far you thought you would go

those summer days you cut the sky upon your swing

How far you thought you would go

when those first keys were put in to your hands

How far you thought you would go

when that first job was yours

How far you will know you have come

when you realize

that  now you are at home

and that's poetiquejustis

Everyone will sit under their own vine and under their own fig tree, and no one will make them afraid, for the LORD Almighty has spoken.

Micah 4:4

Making Room in a Room of One's Own

 

I don't want to be a passenger in my own life

Doris Ackerman

I do  not want to see life through a window

I do not want to hear life through others ears

I do not want to feel life through another

I do not want to cry others tears

I want to feel life in my own way

Though I  may choose to share it with you

I want to pedal along in this journey of mine

But there is always room for two

and that's poetiquejustis

                                         A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, 

                                                   but two can stand back-to-back and conquer.

                                                                       Ecclesiastes 4:12

                                                        

And On That Note

 

The inmost in time
becomes the outmost
R W Emerson

Your actions are the books

people read about your life

Your words are the melody

                                                         that gets stuck in their heads

Today

When you are the  author of the good

and the troubadour of peace

You do not have to be concerned about the reviews

Because you are a best seller

 and a major hit

in all the ways that matter

and that's poetiquejustis

May the words of my mouth
and the meditations of my heart
be pleasing in your sight,
my Lord and my Redeemer
Psalm 19:14

Written in Stone

 

Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present

Jim Rohn

Today I petition myself 

To look well to how I build my life

To lay each brick along the path with love

And care

and daring

Because the path I build today

Will be the road I walk tomorrow

and that's poetiquejustis

Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.

I Thessalonians 5:11
