Live Today
Today is all we have. It’s fun to reminisce about the past, and necessary to plan certain events of the future, such as retirement or vacations. But this moment is what we’re living. You can’t change the past, or predict the future, so what are you going to do with your today?
You can choose to work hard, play hard, do nothing, get stressed about what did or didn’t happen, feel grateful for your life, etc. You each wake up every morning with a choice about how you’re going to live your day.
There’s no question that events of the previous day, month, or lifetime will have their effects on you. Of course, they will. But, what do you do with those left-overs? If it were last night’s dinner, you could freeze them, throw them out, or save them to eat again. You can do the same with the events of the past.
Today is all you have. If you let the events of the past cloud this day, then you’ve lost a day of sunshine. What we think weathers our lives. Remember the good; throw out those old hurts and angers, so that you can feel the soothing warmth of today’s sunshine. Your mind is the one that chooses your interior weather forecast for today. Make it a sunny one!
