I don't know how you will find me when we meet.
I will have become someone else by then.
Who that will be, I have yet to find out myself.
But please be gentle with the person I might be then.
For I have made a deal with Tomorrow.
Tomorrow has a lot in store for this weary soul.
Tests of fortitude and patience and love.
Tests of prudence and kindness and acceptance.
And forgiveness.
Especially forgiveness.
It is one of the hardest tests of all.
It is the one that can most change us into people we hardly recognize.
So when you see me, Over-morrow, please be kind.
Please be gentle. Please be sweet.
Be that friend who says nothing but gives much.
And I shall look forward to meeting you
like the long lost friend I shall never catch up with.
If anything, at least give me hope.
At least help me feel that the rainbow in your skies
will be worth Tomorrow's rain.
