I think allot of us live by the sentiment of someday as if today is not enough. Today, however is all we have and that is why it has to start being enough. It has to be and I am glad to have found this poem by Lurana Brown to remind me of that.
Betty G
One day
when I am thin enough
I will wear that dress
One day
when I am rich enough
I will go to that restaurant
One day I will be
confident enough for the beach
smart enough for the job
brave enough for travelling
to the places I want to go,
pretty enough
to be
loved
I will dance without restraint
sing without doubt
smile without fear
laugh
out
loud
with my whole heart and know myself
to be beautiful
One day I will live
Until then, I am
waiting for the
moment when I will
be good
enough
Poignant. I like a lot.
