The Gift We Forget
This poem belongs to Chapter 1, Soul Awakening. This poem was born from remembering that the present is a divine gift, and that sometimes we forget the most sacred thing is simply to be here.
The reason you feel anxious
is because your mind is running
toward a future that hasn’t arrived yet.
The reason you overthink everything
is because your soul is still trapped
in a past you can no longer change.
And in the meantime,
the present is the one you value the least.
It waits for you in silence,
gently holding out its hand.
They say that’s why it’s called the present:
because it’s a gift
that God gives you each day.
And it truly is.
Think about it:
the past is unchangeable,
the future unpredictable,
but the now…
the now belongs to you.
Only today
can you love differently.
Only today
can you choose again.
Only today
can you forgive yourself
and begin anew.
Honor the life
that is vibrating in your chest.
God already knows what tomorrow will bring.
And you, no matter how hard you try,
cannot rewrite what happened yesterday.
But you can choose
who you are today.
And that
changes everything.
