What if

just for today

you dared to do

that thing you fear?

What if

just for today

whenever you

wanted to say no,

you opened yourself

to yes?

What if

today was the day

when everything

changed?

    Did that yesterday with something. I hated it. But I’m glad I did it because now I know for sure that I hate it.
