"What day is it?" asked Pooh.
"It's today," squeaked Piglet.
"My favorite day," said Pooh.
~ A.A. Milne
Can you relate to Piglet and Pooh? Among my favorite experiences is when I'm on vacation and I have to stop and think about the date and day of the week because I've become so relaxed. I don't have that experience often. I hope that, sometime today, you and I have a sense of the peace and pleasure of it being simply "today."
If you were asked, "What day is it?" would you answer, "Sunday," as I would?
But did you know it is also:
National Noodle Day
Coaches Day
Appreciate Plus Sizes Day
German-American Day
and
Mad Hatter Day?
Yes, these are among the national designations for October 6. So consider eating noodles and honoring the coaches in your life. Value who you are, whatever size you are. Celebrate German ancestry and culture (maybe have some buttered German noodles), and/or be silly for Mad Hatter Day.
Whatever you do, seize the day.
With joy,
