Yesterday
I’ve written a couple of poems about yesterday
But today I keep coming back to this for my Y blog
And why- I’m not sure
Yesterday is gone they say but in a very real way it’s not- wouldn’t it be nice if some yesterdays were gone for good- never to be thought of again - only if we could redo the thing that holds the horrible consequences of some yesterdays
Sometimes yesterday is a comfort in retrospect- knowing it’s behind us and done with
Some things if you didn’t get to yesterday you can easily finish today or even tomorrow
But you’ll never know if it might have been better done yesterday
Yesterday we might have felt like doing whatever but today that feeling is missing somewhere in yesterday
Don’t let your yesterdays control your todays though- even yesterday wouldn’t want that
So plan for your future yesterdays- knowing that a sorrowful look back at yesterday is inevitable but a grateful heartfelt glimpse is always welcomed

I like your line "don't let your yesterdays control your today's; even yesterday wouldn't want that. We need to be mindful of yesterdays but not dwell on them and move forward with today and try not to think of tomorrows.

I know - we aren’t promised tomorrow but it’s hard not to plan for it sometimes- thanks Betty 😍🙏
