Today...

Today I will live through the next 24 hours and not try to  tackle all of life's problems at once.

~ ~ ~

Today I will refuse to spend time worrying about what might happen if ...

~ ~ ~

Today I will improve myself -- body, mind and spirit.

~ ~ ~

Today I will not imagine what I would do if things were different.

They are not different. I will do my best with what material I have.

~ ~ ~

Today I will find the grace to let go of resentments of others

and self-condemnation over past mistakes.

~ ~ ~

Today I will not try to change, or improve, anybody but me.

~ ~ ~

Today I will act toward others as though this will be my last day on earth.

~ ~ ~

Today I will be unafraid. I will enjoy what is beautiful,

and I will believe that as I give to the world, the world will give to me."

~ ~ ~

Whether these are the best of times or the worst of  times, these are the only times we've got.

Live each day fully and you will look back  on a life that made a difference.
