Freestyle Friday: What Is Today?


Today is just another day, but it is also the only today we have. A day that we can fill with hope, and progress. A day we can make a difference. Or it can be a day we allow to slip away, waking tomorrow hardly remembering what we did, in a week realizing we did nothing lasting or meaningful. Today can be the day we make the world a better place. It can be in some little way. Saying hello, smiling, holding a door, helping with a package. Answering a question.  Listening to someone's story. Or in a major way. This might be the day we write something that moves someone, that we create art that communicates an important message and motivates the world to be the best it can be. 

Today is what we make it. 

What will you make your today?  

I am on a digital detox. This post was written ahead of time and scheduled to appear today. I have not missed posting at least once per day in over a decade. While on this detox, I will not have internet access many days, when I do have access it will be limited. Please continue to leave comments, but I may not reply to comments. I will read comments when I can. Normal service will resume in late May.

  2. Today is my parent's wedding anniversary - they were married 78 years ago. So I'm thinking about them today. I will visit my brother at the care facility he is in. I go every Friday and we have a nice chit chat and I clean up around his little apartment. He has good days and not so good days.

  3. Yesterday is history,
    Tomorrow is a mystery,
    Today is a gift.
    That's why it's called the present.
