THOUGHTS FOR THURSDAY

Thoughts for Thursday
by Linda Miller
I’m not running a race with the rest of the world,
I have nothing significant to prove.
I am only running a race with myself,
In the unending effort to improve.
I have no major axes to grind,
No popular causes to proclaim.
I just want to be a better version of me,
Not an embarrassment to my family name.
I will never be written in a history,
As an outstanding person of note.
I can only hope someone, somewhere,
Will understand the words that I wrote
And know that they came from a place in my heart,
Too deep for me to explore.
So God brought them up from my subconscious mind,
And turned them loose, when He opened the door.
