i make her a sandwich
with ham and lettuce.
adding a hardboiled egg
to the plate,
i give it to her
while she reads the paper in bed.
then,
i go downstairs and read
while my dog
snores quietly
in the sun.
some days are like this.
quiet.
what it all comes down to
is consistency.
that’s the key.
it doesn’t matter
what you’re talking about…
training a dog…
hitting a fastball…
writing a book…
painting a picture.
or,
just making a ham sandwich.
the only thing
that matters
is doing it over and over again.
before you know it,
you get better at it.
then, pretty soon
you start to get good.
a few lucky ones
even get great.
and in the eyes of the world
the great
are always
lucky.
