A New Day

This is the beginning of a new day!

I have been given this day to use as I will.

I can waste it, or use it.

I can make it a day long to be remembered for its joy,
its beauty and its achievements,
or it can be filled with pettiness.

What I do today is important because
I am exchanging a day of my life for it.

When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever,
but I shall hold something which I have traded for it.

It may be no more than a memory, but if it is a worthy one
I shall not regret the price.

I want it to be gain not loss, good not evil, success not failure.
