Worth Remembering (a poem)

(Photograph done by me)

Sometimes there are days

When I wish I could have done things differently

And changed my ways

But why would I look back?

I need to focus on the present

Maybe there was a lot I lacked

Back then

But the sun is shining now

And I don’t see any clouds

Now is the time to make good memories

And capture special time with my family

Because why would I look back?

When I have so much to look forward to...

Sure I’ll probably have another bad day again

But Jesus is here to help me with all the pain

So why would I look back?

I know what I’m going to do

With those days

I’ll just forget them

And I know what I’m going to do

With these days

I am going to make them

Worth remembering

Sometimes I really feel depressed because of the past. But I know God has something planned that is so worth  it and so satisfying for me in the future, so why would I look back?
