TODAY - September 25, 2009

Today, when I awoke, I suddenly realized that this
is the best day of my life, ever.

There were times I wondered if I would make it to today;
but I did! And because I did I'm going to celebrate.
To celebrate what an unbelievable life I have had so far;
the accomplishments, the blessings, and, yes, even the hardships
because they have served to make me stronger.

I will go through this day with my head held high and a happy heart
and I will marvel at the morning dew, the sun. the clouds, the flowers, trees and birds.

Today none of these things will escape my notice. Today, I will share
my excitement for life with other people. I will make someone
smile. I will go out of my way to perform an unexpected act of
kindness for someone I don't even know.

Today is the day I quit worrying about what I don't have and start being grateful for all the wonderful things I do have.
