Day Diary - Lessons from Yesterday
Yesterday was the day of mixed emotions for me. I got up early (around 5.00, truly following the saying “Early to Bed and Early to rise…”) and after a gap of approx. 3 weeks got ready for the office on time (O.K. agreed, not following it so keenly L). Board the office cab and wow! The girl on whom I had a crush, right from day 1, sat next to me. I was so pleasantly shocked that, I was listening to the music on my phone and the phone actually fell from my lap. The whole journey was a dream journey for me, but still I was feeling very uneasy. Anyways the cab reached office and I caught hold of my breath. At office too, I made progress in the project that was stagnant for some period. In the lunchtime as it was the birthday of a colleague, we celebrated it with devouring pizzas (Underline ‘we celebrated’ and not him as it cost the poor guy almost 800 bucks). Up till now the day was going fine, but it was not to be. It is not that some thing actually happened but some past memories caught hold of me and I got dispirit. Adding salt to it I did some terrible mistake in the family work that was assigned to me. Got a scolding!L. Went quite early to bed and just laid there thinking about the day. A broad smile appeared on my face thinking about the morning (the bus scene). Wished myself ATB for the next day and slowly slipped into the world of dreams.
Hey! Before going to sleep would like to share with you a lovely poem which I found on the net :
Yesterday has once again,
come back to let me know.
That my mistakes are not forgot,
today again they show.
Reminding me that once again,
I failed in some small way.
This recall is just a hint,
of what I've yet to pay.
Don't be fooled and think its past,
when all seems good and fine.
Yesterday can be a friend,
it comes here to remind.
It does it as a helpful voice,
to keep us all aware.
If we learn from its advice,
then heart ache we may spare.
So yesterday come visit please,
remind me once again.
Tomorrow comes just much to quick,
mistakes I need to mend.
Remind me what I should not do,
and if I've done it right.
One day maybe I will learn,
and win this endless fight.
