Don’t Look Back

By Jan Miller Girando

As you travel through life there are always those times

When decisions just have to be made

When the choices seem hard, and solutions seem scarce

And the rain seems to soak your parade!

There are some situations where all you can do

Is to simply let go and move on

Gather courage together and choose a direction

That carries you toward a new dawn.

So pack up your troubles and take a step forward –

The process of change can be tough

But think about all the excitement ahead

If you can be stalwart enough!

There could be adventures you never imagined

Just waiting around the next bend

And wishes and dreams just about to come true

In ways you can’t yet comprehend.

Perhaps you’ll find friendships that spring from new interests

As you challenge your status quo

And learn there are so many options in life,

And so many ways you can grow!

Perhaps you’ll go places you never expected

And see things that you’ve never seen

Or travel to fabulous faraway worlds and wonderful spots in between!

Perhaps you’ll find warmth and affection and caring –

A “somebody special” who’s there

To help you stay centered and listen with interest

To stories and feelings you share.

Perhaps you’ll find comfort in knowing your friends

Are supportive of all that you do

And believe that whatever decisions you make,

They’ll be the right choices for you!

So keep putting one foot in front of the other

And taking your life day by day.

There’s a brighter tomorrow that’s just down the road.

Don’t look back – you’re not going that way!
