Today

Be Still My Soul

Morning has Broken

 
 


 

                                                  Today, I will delete from my journal

       two days: yesterday and tomorrow

     Yesterday was to learn from 

                            and tomorrow...well that will be the consequence

         of what I can do today.

                    

Today, I will face life 

                           with the sure knowledge that this day 

                will never return.

          Today, is the last opportunity 

                I have to live intensely, 

               as no one can assure me

                                      that I will see tomorrow's sunrise.

               

    Today, I will be brave enough 

                     not to let any opportunity pass me by,

                       my only alternative is to succeed.

     

Today, I will invest

                                my most valuable resource: my time

                                               in the most transcendental work: my life...

                         

 

Today, I will spend each minute

                       passionately, to make today a different

                   and unique day in my life.

                     

 

                                                   Today, I will defy every obstacle that appears on my way,

                                                              trusting I will succeed.

                       
   Today, I will resist pessimism, and will conquer

                               the world with a smile and a positive attitude

                              of always expecting the best.


           Today, I will make of every ordinary task 

    a sublime expression,

           


                   Today, I will have my feet on the ground

                         understanding reality and the stars' gaze,

                      and thus will invent my future.

                 Today, I will take the time to be happy               

        and will leave my footprints and my presence

                           in the hearts of others, not just in the sands of time.

          
                       Today, 
 I invite you to begin a new season

where we can dream 

                     that everything we undertake is possible

           and we fulfill that dream,

      with joy and dignity.

 

                           Today, why not perform a random act of kindness...?

 

           And, if there are those that you love, tell them,

                               you don't know when it might be your last opportunity.

                          Tell them, as I have just done...today. 

                                                                                                  ...Mark
