Occasions for Reflections

I ponder and I wonder
when trying to surmise
what might happen "If?".
Can I avoid surprise?

To predecide an action
can eliminate much grief.
Anger is spontanious
and becomes a sneaky thief!

Proactive, not reactive.
Decide it, and then do.
Accomplish what you plan for.
To procrastinate is to stew.

Worry is "fear factor",
and it never wins.
Faith can eliminate failure
which is worry's twin.

Look upward when you ponder.
View sunshine, not the dirt.
Because positive pulls you higher
and seldom ever hurts.

"Do It!" is a slogan.
For something to get done,
we start it when we ponder.
Pondering is fun!
