TODAY is a most unusual day,
because we have never lived it before;
we will never live it again;
it is the only day we have.
TODAY can be a healthy unusual day for you—
and for others—if you take time to give someone a smile…
to express a word of kindness…to lend a helping hand
to someone in need...to write a note of gratitude…
to give a word of encouragement to someone
who is temporarily overcome with problems…
to share a portion of your material possessions with others.
LOSE YOURSELF in generous service
and every day can be a most unusual day,
a triumphant day, an abundantly rewarding day!
William Arthur Ward
GOOD MORNING !
I hope all is well with all of you today and that you will have a most ‘unusual ‘ day today too.
As I’m just starting to wake up here and am sipping my good coffee, I really have no unusual plans. I guess we’ll just see what the day brings.
I got home with the ‘loaner’ car from the repair shop last night and will go get the car when they call . Other wise I’m home and have lots to do here.
It is a chilly one here and there is a nip in the air. It's funnny how things smell differently in the changing seasons.
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Every morning when you wake up,
you are given another day of life.
This gift of life is precious.
To say that it’s precious is
really a colossal understatement.
Being alive is more valuable
than anything else that one can own and possess.
The greater your appreciation for being alive,
the more enthusiastic you will be
when you wake up each morning.
Your Creator gives you life this moment for a reason.
Your life is purposeful.
Just imagine the enthusiasm you are
going to experience when you realize that the Creator
and Sustainer of the universe is saying to you,
"I am giving you life this very moment. Appreciate it."
Rabbi Zelig Pliskin
Cherish your yesterdays;
Dream your tomorrows;
But live your todays.
May JOY find your Heart and warm your Soul.

P.S. I hope it's a "most unusual one."
I'm up at an unusual hour for a Saturday and it will be an unusually quiet day with son2 gone for the day and then the day will end on an unusual note being at a halloween party, lol...
Hopefully nothing unusual is wrong with the car and it's as good as new soon.....
Enjoy the day!

Love the quote about Today. So true. It is cool here this morning but the sun is shinning. :-) Great entry. God Bless, Janie
I have often wondered why people do not smile, nod or say hello to people as they pass by. It brightens up your day and for some people it might be the only time anyone acknowledges them at all.

Yes, we all have to remember to live for today, whatever that brings us. It's so easy for us to be looking forward to something and forget to take advantage of the day we have. Thank you so much for your great entries. Joni
