Celebrate Today

(Got this in email, thought I'd share it. Thanks Gooch )

Today, when I awoke, I suddenly realized that this is the best day of
my life, ever There were times when I wondered if I would make it to
today; but I did! And because I did I'm going to celebrate!

Today, I'm going to celebrate what an unbelievable life I have had so
far: the accomplishments, the many blessings, and, yes, even the
hardships because they have served to make me stronger.

I will go through this day with my head held high and a happy
heart. I will marvel at God's seemingly simple gifts: the morning dew,
the sun, the clouds, the trees, the flowers, the birds.
Today, none of these miraculous creations will escape my notice.
Today, I will share my excitement for life with other people. I'll
make someone smile. I'll go out of my way to perform an unexpected act
of kindness for someone I don't even know. Today, I'll give a sincere
compliment to someone who seems down. I'll tell a child how special he
is, and I'll tell someone I love just how deeply I care for them and
how much they mean to me.

Today is the day I quit worrying about what I don't have and start
being grateful for all the wonderful things God has already given me.
I'll remember that to worry is just a waste of time because my faith in
God and his Divine Plan ensures everything will be just fine.

And tonight, before I go to bed, I'll go outside and raise my eyes to
the heavens. I will stand in awe at the beauty of the stars and the
moon, and I will praise God for these magnificent treasures.

As the day ends and I lay my head down on my pillow, I will thank the
Almighty for the best day of my life. And I will sleep the sleep of a
contented child, excited with expectation because I know tomorrow is
going to be the best day of my life.
