Today Is A New Day!

Someone told me yesterday that today would be a new day.  That yesterday was over, and today would be a new day.  And it is.  What a wise thing to say.  I was having such a stressful day yesterday that I didn't have much time or energy to think about what a wise person would do in that situation.  Actually, I didn't really care in the moment.  All I could do was ask myself 'what the hell am I doing here?'  And I just wanted to be done with the day.  But a wise person would've realized that every day is a new day, and every day is a chance to start all over again.  A chance to start from scratch….hmmm…like baking a cake from scratch: just starting with the raw ingredients each time and aiming to create something great!  What happens along the way depends on many things, but you can always choose to start fresh and start with good intentions to have a great day.  A wise person would know that just shifting your attitude a bit is all it takes to get going down the right path to a good day. 

Today is a new day, and as little as I feel like being my positive peppy self today, I will do it anyway…because I have a choice to be the one who takes control of what my day will look like.  I'm planning my day in advance to be a good day.  Let's see how wise a decision that turns out to be….
