"It's not that 'today is the first day of the rest of my life,' but that now is all there is of my life."

                                     ~ Hugh Prather

While I very much like the fresh start sense of today being the first day going forward, I appreciate the greater power of living this day, right now.  

With childlike joy and enthusiasm, may we live well today, in the present instead of the future or the past.

If this intention resonates in you, what touchstone might help you anchor your aim?

Maybe it is Hugh Prather's quote. Maybe it is another saying or a story or a memory or a string tied on your finger.

Whatever reminds us, let's each embrace this precious and beautiful day.

With gratitude,
Charlene
