Hello Someday!

Being is, and non-being is not.
Becoming is not the passage from not-being to being. 
But from being in potentiality to being in reality.  
Good news! I woke up this morning in my right mind!
Most of my life I was plagued by an inner voice that said 
"Someday you are going to die and all of this shall pass away." 
Then today I woke up very early and I said to myself:
"Do you want to be thinking about dying on your last day on earth?"
I answered myself: 
"Hell no! I would rather be thinking about life eternal!" 
So, when that last day finally comes, what more can I say 
Other than, "Hello Someday," and beyond?
Quietly I lie down on the bed again and fall asleep 
Because the Lord put me in my right mind.
Yesterday is gone and tomorrow is a maybe.
What I do today I must do like life depended on it. 
(Bob Mrotek 2025)
