Today's Gift
I wake each morning with the thrill of
expectation and the joy of being truly alive. And I'm thankful for this day.
--Angela L. Wozniak
Being open to the day's offering, all of it, and looking for the
positive experiences therein, becomes habit only after a firm commitment and
dedicated practice. Today is special for each of us.
These next twenty-four hours will be unlike all others. And we
are not the persons we were, even as recently as yesterday. Looking forward to
all of the day's events, with the knowledge that we are in the care of our
higher power, in every detail, frees us to make the most of everything that
happens.
We have been given the gift of life. We are survivors. The odds
against survival in our past make clear we have yet a job to do and are being
given the help to do it. Confidence wavers in all of us, but the strength we
need will be given to each of us.
In this day that stands before me, I can be certain that
I'll have many chances for growth, for kindness to others, for developing
confidence in myself. I will be thoughtful in my actions today. They are special
and will be repeated no more.
