Let it be, Let it be

**disclaimer - I don't know how to write this. I should probably wait. My brain is jumbled**  

In our day to day life we worry about so many useless mundane things. Things that if we took a step back we would realize don't matter at all. 

How is my hair

My clothes

Damn that person who cut me off!

Rush, Rush, Rush.

I'm late, I'm late, I'm late

I want, I want, I want. 

More stuff.

More things. 

Lets fight about religion 

Lets fight about debt

Lets fight about politics 

Lets waste our energy hating people based on 

Race, Sexuality and Religion

or lack there of.

Lie, cheat and steal from each other 

to get 'ahead'

I need, I need, I need

Money, Money, Money

The newest technology 

The biggest house

The nicest car

I'm right

You're wrong

Just stop

Breath

Breath

Breath

We spend so much time worrying about tomorrow

that we miss out on today

We spend so much time consumed with the 

maybe

what if

perhaps

sometime

someday

that we miss the moment we're in 

right now

Did you see it? 

or did you miss it again. 

Try again 

Stop

Close your eyes

Inhale

Exhale

'Just love to live and live life today

Don't spend too much of today on yesterday.'

Your hair is fine (or lack there of!)

Your cloths are doing their job of keeping you warm.

Maybe that person really needs to be somewhere

Take your time, it's in limited supply 

so enjoy ever last millisecond

You'll be happier without them.

Let it be, Let it be.

If Sally and Jen want to get married

What difference does that really make in your life?

What difference would it make? 

Let it be, Let it be

You will bleed and die just as quickly as the next guy.

So are you really ever ahead?

More things to break

More things to fix

More things to distract you from the moment you're living in.

It doesn't have to be one way or the other. 

Even what is true is not stagnant. 

Just because something is true today doesn't mean that it will still be true tomorrow 

so why worry about it?

 

Now

breath

breath breath

I'm sad tonight. 

My brother-in-law by proxy (my BIL brother) 

is in his final days. 

He's 36 years old. 

He is a teacher. 

He has brain cancer. 

For the second time. 

He's been fighting it 

this second time around

For almost a year now. 

And he's on his final stand. 

I sent him flowers. 

I've been told that's a bit depressing.

To send someone flowers before they die. 

I disagree. 

Flowers serve the living much better than they do the dead. 

I am also of the opinion 

that men don't get flowers nearly often enough.
