Just For Today
For just one day, we can do anything we set our hearts on.
So, for this day only, let us resolve to be unafraid of life, unafraid of death, unafraid to be happy and vow to enjoy the beauty around us and believe only the best of others.
Just for today, let us live this day only. Let's forget yesterday and tomorrow and not try to solve the whole problem of life in one fell swoop.
Lincoln said people are just about as happy as they make up their minds to be. He was so right!
We must vow to adjust ourselves to what is - our family, our business, our opportunities.
To try to make the world over to suit us is a big order. If we cannot have what we like, we can like what we have.

So, just for today, let us be agreeable, responsive, cheerful and kind.
Let us look our best, walk softly, praise people for what they do and not criticize them for what they cannot do. When we find fault, let's overlook it.
Don't you feel thankful when you get a second chance? Remember that the next fellow would appreciate it, too.
