Journal entry:
The following poem was prompted by the PAD Challenge at Poetic Asides. If you are in need of inspiration, visit that site.
Continuing Spiral
It is a circle
Moving round and round again
Ever expanding
To include new opinions
Of what democracy is.
There are some constants,
The constitution and rule
Of law continue,
But we the people control
The country ever changing.
We honor the vote
That allows us to express
Our thoughts that circle
Around the center of all
That makes up our government.
Elections hard fought
Show we are diverse people
Circling each other
With different attitudes
Deserving of our respect.
We work together
To make a better future
For everyone who
Lives within our great nation
Now and in the years to come.

I am grateful:
1. I slept well.
2. I was able to pick up Mom’s prescriptions.
3. I got a new Sonicare toothbrush, because after ten years mine was worn out.
4. Hope is much better and has her bark back.
5. I have faith in God and know he cares for me.
I was busy today, but enjoyed my Wednesday. I hope you had a wonderful day. Take time to work creatively now. You have the ability to make something of lasting beauty. I know you must have much to share with the world.
