It is not that you can’t, or

even that you won’t. It is 

what it is, whether you do 

or you don’t.

Today or really any day, try 

to do what you need to do

to become a better you.

I know it seems hard, as

many days seem like a test,

yet despite unlucky numbers, 

today you should try to do 

your best.

Whether you are beginning

your day, or struggling with

the middle, seek to soothe

your beleaguered soul with 

a poem, rhyme, or a riddle.
