Every New Day Is a Gift.

When people we know die — especially when the death is sudden and unexpected — we may ponder the frailty and uncertainty of life. We all know something about the celebrities who recently died and the swift succession of these deaths seems to drive home the point. Yet, if you look at the obituaries in the newspaper on any day, it is apparent that dozens of people who recently lived a short drive from us are gone. This truth is always present, but we only consciously acknowledge it from time to time and then not often enough.
But there is an opposite side to that coin. While we may not have tomorrow, we have today. We should live it, cherish it and savor it. If we are given another day tomorrow, do the same.
Every new day is a gift.
