first i learned to live day by day,
then - slowly - moment by moment.
i'm still working on it,
but i'd like to think i can
flow seamlessly from sadness
to happiness, without so much as a hiccup.
of course, speed bumps exist in life,
possibly on purpose, to throw us off track.
but if you accept them for what they are,
and realize that the best you'll ever be,
is all that you are in the present,
you can start living in the moment,
or - at the very least - day by day.
