TOMORROW…
While ironing my clothes, there was gospel music playing in the background. One song in particular came on and I began to sing along, thinking about how much preparation we make for the next day. We rarely stop and think that maybe there is no tomorrow for us.
One thing that I did faithfully for many years of my life was plan ahead. I planned my whole life out before I completed elementary school. So, naturally life has changed my outlook on planning but tonight, I was forced to reexamine my thoughts regarding planning. As I listened to different stories today I heard a recurring theme, stories of plans but all the plans were contingent upon a tomorrow.
When we consider ourselves “healthy” (physically, mentally, financially), we have a tendency to arrange our lives so that we cut a lot of little things out because we think it will cause us to lose focus or hinder our progress. It is easy to put things off for another day because you can justify your absence, your lack of compassion, or lack of interest due to your journey to the next level. What we fail to realize is that time is something that we cannot get back. We can develop the most well thought out plan and it will not mean a thing if we do not see tomorrow.
Life is full of the unknown but there are some things that we do know. We know when we love someone, we know when someone has hurt us, we know when we want to see a change take place in our lives, we know when we miss someone, we know when we need to change course, and there are so many other things that we know so, LIVE LOVE LAUGH WITHOUT LIMITS.
