Turning the pages of the calendar.
Each day we live, we get a chance to remember bits and pieces of our past. We celebrate the happy memories of births, birthdays, school functions, good grades and graduations. Vacations and wild weekends may have been a part of growing up. As we get older there are the engagements, weddings and births. The cycle begins for a new generation.
Mixed in the all the joy and happiness are the tears of illnesses, accidents, deaths and funerals. That ends a cycle.
Yet, a new day on the calendar has a promise just for that day for each of us to do well at whatever task we have. If dishes need washing, do them and get it over with. Then find something nice to do for a while.
Whatever your vocation or avocation, paid or unpaid, do the job better than anyone else. There are rewards at being the best, even if the reward is to yourself because you know you are good at it.
If food must be prepared, get started. Get the meal fixed. Whether serving a family or
If you don't when your eyes are closed forever, your executor of your Last Will and Testament will see that your heirs, [please have a Will] pick up their last gift or gifts from you. Before you are cold in the ground or your ashes have settled in the urn, your unused "good stuff" will be on E-bay, Amazon or in a yard sale. Give them nothing unused even once.
Make each day of living a celebration. Start with a meditation, even if it is just one sentence before getting out of bed. Begin each day reading the obituaries on line, should you see your name, you know your work on earth is over. If your name is missing, be good to yourself and live like the royal person you are, a Child of the King.
