Today, this day, I will make mine. It is mine to do with as I please.
I can do what I want with it. I can choose to be noble. I can choose to be self destructive. I can choose to be mean. It is my day the Lord has given me. My choice.
Oh! The possibilities! I can go on an adventure! I can read a book! I can stay home and work to make my life better.
I can sit on my lard butt and do nothing. The choices seem endless.
I can call my kids today! I can enjoy the morning sun. I can revel in mundane and see, even there, God's hand. I can kiss my wife.
I can flirt with her. I can ignore her. I can cuss up a storm if I wish. Or I can respect her wishes (and also respect myself) and not spout nastiness.
I can slander another person. Or, I can lift them up. I can talk like I know everything, or I can listen.
Today, I choose to be kind. I choose to be loving. I choose to listen. I choose to talk to my kids.
I choose. I am in charge of my destiny.
So often, I live my life doing what I think I am supposed to do, what others have said I should do.
It is my life.
How much of my life have I wasted?
Today is precious. Its my day. I choose to enjoy it. This day. David
