Yesterday. Today and Tomorrow.

Today is upon me as I awaken to a new day.
Yesterday is gone. Today is now. Tomorrow is the future.
Today I looked back at yesterday and it was today that I also attempted to look at tomorrow, hoping I would see the future.
Yesterday is gone forever and only memories of it remain.
Where did yesterday go?
What happen to it?
It was there, but now it is gone, never to return.
One fact about yesterday is that I am getting farther and farther away from the day I entered this life, and that I am getting nearer to the day, the hour and the minute when I will return to where I came from.
Dust.
I refuse to worry about yesterday. It is gone and done with. Yes, I learned from it, and I will attempt to use the good of it for the benefit of all.
I shall live these moments which is today, but I am worried about tomorrow because within it lay the future and what I know is coming.
Death.
I have listened to various experts, whatever that is, telling me how to prepare for tomorrow, and I have done that.
I have paid man his dues, taxes if you like, but what about my soul.
Is that part of me ready for what I know will come?
I like to believe I am ready, but in my heart I know that I am not, and that I will never be ready to meet my maker. And so I say again.
Yesterday is gone. Today is now and today I pray that the good I have done will benefit what I leave behind me, and that my Lord in his infinite mercy will forgive all the wrongs I have done as I leave today, this moment and enter tomorrow.
Judgment day and Eternity.
