finish each day.
“finish each day and be done with it.
you have done what you could.
some blunders and absurdities
no doubt crept in;
forget these as soon as you can.
tomorrow is a new day.
you shall begin it serenely
and with too high a spirit
to be encumbered
with your old nonsense”

das boot.
another unexpected mishap
once
while singing and dancing in my house
another time
while playing extreme family badminton
yet again
after lots and lots of walking and hiking
and
this time
while
running on the ice with the kinders
then
limping to the doctor for a boot
it’s only a matter of time
and i’m sure that
i’ll find
a new happy and healthy activity
to challenge me
but i’m going to
keep the boot this time.
