What we do with each day is largely decided by the thought we give it
in the beginning and how we start a new day plays an immense part in the
success or failure of either carefully laid plans, or helter-skelter activity.
We should open this day with as much reverence as if it were gift
wrapped and presented to us personally, which it is.
What wonderful thing can I do this day that no one else can do? Shall I
spend these precious moments complaining? Shall I sit glum at my work
to make others feel morbid? Should I continually acknowledge how little I
have and how badly I feel? Or should I speak kindly, think kindly, feel
kindly, and be so grateful that I have another opportunity today to do
something for others that will bring them joy and lift their spirits?
This day is in your hands. You will reap from it what you plant. If you
would be loved, then be lovable; if you want peace, be peaceable; and
if you would ask freedom, grant freedom. And learn to forgive without
reservation.
May you experience each day as a sacred gift woven around the heart of
wonder
