Letter 4494
I had plans upon awakening, in the dark of morning.
Tidy rooms, sweep stoop, weed garden. A full morning.
❖
Yet had arrived a message overnight. I was needed. I set out at dawn.
I was so certain, as I retired the night before, of what I would be doing.
Consider:
Can I accept the unknown of each day?
