Today is the Best Day of My Life.
Today, when I awoke, I suddenly realized that this is the best day of
my life, ever!
There were times when I wondered if I would make it to today; but I
did!
And because I did I’m going to celebrate!
Today, I’m going to celebrate what an unbelievable life I have had so
far: the accomplishments, the many 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.
I will marvel at nature’s seemingly simple gifts: the morning dew, the
sun, the clouds, the trees, the flowers, the birds.
Today, none of these miraculous creations will escape my notice.
Today, I will share my excitement for life with other people. I’ll make
someone smile.
I’ll go out of my way to perform an unexpected act of kindness for
someone I don’t even know.
Today, I’ll give a sincere compliment to someone who seems down.
I’ll tell a child how special he is, and I’ll tell someone I love just
how deeply I care for them and how much they mean to me.
Today is the day I quit worrying about what I don’t have and start
being grateful for all the wonderful things God has already given me.
I’ll remember that to worry is just a waste of time because my faith in
God and his Divine Plan ensures everything will be just fine.
And tonight, before I go to bed, I’ll go outside and raise my eyes to
the heavens.
I will stand in awe at the beauty of the stars and the moon, and I will
praise nature for these magnificent treasures.
As the day ends and I lay my head down on my pillow, I will thank the
Almighty for the best day of my life.
And I will sleep the sleep of a contented child, excited with
expectation because I know tomorrow is going to be the best day of my
life, ever!
