Whatever happened yesterday, last week, last month, last year is done. There is no point spending time re-living the past in our head over and over. Whatever we are planning for the future has not started yet. The anticipation is just a serie of made up stories that may not even happen. The only thing we have is the present. Right now. Be in the moment, be in the now. It is a gift!

I received a Christmas card in which a very wise friend had written these words:

Yesterday is History

Tomorrow is a Mystery

Today is a Gift

That is why they call it the Present

So let’s stop dwelling on the past or worrying about the future. Let’s enjoy the gift of today!
