Today is today.

Maybe everything depends. On good health. Another reason to be in favor of universal health care. To be in love with life. No doubt. It helps to feel good. Physically. Mentally. Emotionally. One can be sick. And still be happy. Especially knowing one is on the road to recovery. That the discomfort/pain is only temporary. One learns to endure. And still be happy. Dying. With no hope of recovery. That’s something else. Though maybe one can take solace. In death. As a release from pain and misery. Or best yet, entry into another realm. Another form of life. Yes, imagination may be one’s saving grace. Best, too, not to get ahead of one’s self. Today is today. And meant to be lived. To the fullest.  –Jim Broede
