There is only one thing that makes today stand out, and that is that you woke up and lived to see it happen. If you are alive to read these words, you can celebrate. This day exists for you. Today is here for us, it is not an obstacle, but an opportunity. Today contains everything you will ever need and more. Tomorrow can never help you, and yesterday cannot change. The only thing that yesterday contains are lessons that you can apply today. Use the lessons of the past to make this day better, brighter, and more alive.
Today contains options that yesterday lacked. Today contains the options to thrive; to set the example of love and kindness; and to be a better person. The fact that you lived another day means that you get to make better choices, to practice love and forgiveness, and to take action on those ideas that you have been keeping secret. Today is here for you. It’s not here to see you struggle or to fail. Today needs you to recognize possibility within yourself, not to remind you of your shortcomings. Open yourself to the gifts that today brings – even the small ones! Today needs you to be the example of optimism for a world that so desperately lacks hope and joyfulness. Meet that need by embracing the possibilities of today!
