Daily Lift #1152

Today Only Day That Exists

Today is the greatest day of your life, because today is the only day that exists. All your earlier days are part of your mind’s memory bank. All the future days haven’t occurred yet. So today just has to be the greatest day of your life.

The way you experience the day will be different if you decide to view it as the greatest day of your life, right now. Today is the only day that you get to choose what you will think, say, and do today.

So think about it: What are some of the greatest thoughts that you could think on this great day in your life?

((Life is Now: Creating moments of joy, courage, kindness, and serenity, p. 33))
