AH YES, A NEW DAY

Thursday, March 15, 2007

It’s amazing what a good nights rest can do for your spirit.

My morning walk was exhilarating. I walked to the sound of beautiful music in my ears. The air was fresh and cool. I came home tired but ready to face a new day.

Will I be more patient today? I can’t promise that I will—but I can promise that I will try.

Richard Carlson says, “Don’t sweat the small stuff and it’s all small stuff.” Is he right?
In a way he is. It’s small enough that we shouldn’t fret over it and make ourselves sick. It’s small enough that “in a hundred years from now it won’t make any difference.” But I will always be impatient with people who don’t give a flip about anything. Some things do matter enough to be considered “big” stuff.

But again, today is a new, exciting, adventure. I’m ready for it all—big stuff, little stuff, all kinds of stuff.
