Once I read a story of a lady who 
Kept her most beautiful
Special clothing for the future.
After she died, her husband found them tucked
Into a beautiful trunk
Never worn.
Enjoy today.
Enjoy your beautiful things.
Yes, they will wear out, or be lost eventually
Then enjoy the memories.
Fill life with life.
Fully live in enjoyment and love.

When we are little
We think we want to be like the ‘big kids’.
Then we think that
We want to graduate from elementary school
Then middle, then high school.
Eventually we want to find a life partner.
And have babies.
And see them grow up.
Our future is never far from our focus.
Normal.
Healthy.
Add in a constant awareness of TODAY and its blessings.
Because today flies away and it’s gone.
Hold on to the blessings, the memories,
The joy.

Someone imagined a beautiful bridge.
Someone thought about how to build it.
And someone began to gather the people
To carry out the idea.
Change your life.
Imagine your dream.
Think about it.
Begin to walk on your new path.
Build your bridge.
Change your life.

Think of life as walking up the mountain.
You can sing as you climb.
Or you can complain about your sore feet.
Whichever you choose, 
You still have to do the hike.
Singing makes sense!
