"Musings of Optimism�

It�s no use looking back

To all the things you�ve said and done

They all belong in the past

Where the sun once shone

You�ll only get a sore neck

If you keep looking to the past

You will only miss the present

And the future is coming up fast

Concentrate on the here and now

And do what you have to do

Climb one mountain at a time

And be glad when you�re through

You can do so much more

When you focus on the task

You can relish being yourself

And you can take off that mask

Enjoy the lot you�ve been given

And don�t complain of any chore

For if you had less to do

You would only ask for more

Live everyday as if it was your last

And enjoy the present a while

Stop looking to the past

And face the present with a smile.
