Monday is
gray skies,
cancelled ballgames,
extra homework,
and no ice cream.
Monday is
runny noses,
dental appointments,
vehicle repairs,
and conjugating verbs.
Monday is
multiple meetings,
raised taxes,
napless toddlers,
and stepping on Legos.
Monday is
burned coffee,
leaking roof,
sick pets,
and infected ingrown toenails.
Mondays were created in an alternate universe
where time is controlled by
slugs, sloths, and snails.
Mondays ruin weekends.
But what if Monday was intended to be a gift?
One thousand four hundred forty minutes of
clean slate,
fresh start,
new mercy,
hope filled,
dream chasing,
priceless life.
Choose your Monday motivation carefully.
