If Everything Is Going Your Way…Blow A Kiss…You’re In Heaven

Traveling through this life for over five decades
I have discovered that everyday living will never just be a breeze,

Because each day I wind up misplacing my phone, glasses or keys.

Every single day I forget something vital to my existence,

So as usual being the trooper that I am I tell myself without hesitance:
That I better blow a kiss if everything is going my way because I’ve died and gone straight to Heaven.

But I keep stepping because like Eric Clapton said I know I don’t belong I need to get out quick like a Seven/Eleven.

Yes, technology has simplified yet at the same time complicated most of our days,

Creating so many usernames and passwords feels like walking blindfolded through a maze.
Then there’s credit cards and pin numbers and the neverending extra step the ‘security code’

Then there’s my Alexa and my Smart Tv that I have to make sure is hooked up to the correct node.
But I continue to tell myself that life doesn’t owe me anything

And to make it through this life to the table humility I must bring.

So no longer do I split hairs over not being able to find the remote,

Because I know that I can download it to my phone and that’s all she wrote.
But there are times when I can’t locate an important email and at me it eats and it tears,

Then again, I remind myself that I had better blow a kiss if everything is going my way because

I’ve died and gone straight to meet the man upstairs.
