Poem by Katrina Wightman

The past can’t be undone

The future is unknown and may never come

This moment matters

It is all we have

I act not for some uncertain future reward

In this moment I can change the world and make it better.

In this moment I ease someone’s suffering and pain

In this moment I bring them peace, pleasure, or joy

These are the only gifts I can truly give to anyone

including myself

For the past can not be undone

The future is unknown and may never come

Who am I? I am a good girl and a wild child all rolled into one. I am a little bit of everyone whose life has touched mine. I have held and hold many roles and titles. I am educated by both life and by halls of advanced education. I am a dreamer of far-flung dreams and a practical person with a firm grasp on reality. I am a human with an abundance of love, curiosity, and hunger.  Above all else I am a helper of my fellow humans who hopes when she leaves this world it is a little better for her having been in it.
