I Will Smile Today

By choice, I will smile today.

Regardless of this day’s coils;

There will be no drowning in the Sea Of Life,

These waves were made to be ridden.

I will smile today…because it makes me feel brilliant.


If you don’t have enough madness in you,

go and rehabilitate yourself.

If you’ve lost a hundred times,

the chess game of this life,

be prepared to lose one more.

If you’re the exhausted bird,

fighting a falcon far too long…

make a comeback and be strong!

Rumi
