Just for Today
Just for today I will hold my head high,
and forget my problems.
I can smile and make everyone else’s day better,
even if behind that smile I crỵ.
Just for today I will walk away from a fight,
though I may feel hurt insidẹ.
I will ignore what is said,
and continue on peacefullỵ
Just for today I will set an example,
when I feel the need to hurt.
I will laugh and walk away,
people will admire me morẹ
Just for today I will say only positive things,
I will treat others the way I would want to be treated,
instead of the way they treat mẹ.
I will be confident that life is like a mirror,
if you smile at it, it smiles back,
and what goes around comes around,
so one day that smile will return to mẹ.
Just for today I will stand tall,
I will not look at the ground,
but instead share happiness with others.
I will not compromise my morals,
instead i will offer opinions,
and accept reactions without question.
Just for today I will accept life’s ups and downs,
I will understand that doing what is right and knowing what is right are separate issues,
but with strength I can bring them together to make the world a better placẹ.
Just for today I can.
