Today is the first day of the last month of the year.
It’s time to do some assessment 🙂
Let’s assess where we stand on our plans.
Let’s assess where we stand our resolutions and commitments.
But while doing so, let’s not be a critic of our actions.
Let’s not forget to count our blessings
Let’s not overlook little traces of smiles while hunting for landmarks of happiness.
I awaited moon when sun was shining bright
I longed for sun when darkness filled the night
I desired for cool breeze on sunny days
I yearned for heat and warmth on cold winter days
How I wished to be an adult in my childhood
now I miss my childhood when I am grown up
I prayed to be engrossed in my leisure time
now I long to be free when my day is planned to dime
Our wait is endless; our desires never cease
in this chase of aspirations, we squander our peace
We fail to value our treasures
and forget to be grateful for pleasures
We dream of a great future day
but we forget to live today

Nice set of contrasts. I liked the one about childhood and adulthood.
Thanks Frank. That’s my favourite too. I miss my childhood so much. Life was free of stress and responsibilities then…
Live for today and count our blessings ~ Thanks for linking up with dVerse.
Thanks Grace!
Busyness seems to follow us even when we think otherwise!

Quite true! Thanks for your inputs. Have a great weekend!
I think spending that time to reflect and value what we have is important… and more important the older we grow.
I agree. Being grateful also brings peace to our mind and heart. As we grow old, we need a wealth of blessings too. Thanks for your wonderful words.
You write so truthfully!
Many thanks for the encouragement!
Wow awesome write <3
Thanks Preethi!
It is so important to not lose sight of the light as we asses ourselves, and to not judge ourselves too harshly. Hope is always on the horizon. This was beautifully expressed.
Rightly said Angela. Hope is always on the horizon…just when we are about to quit. Thanks for your wonderful words
My pleasure!
Great
Thank you so much!
