When Your Wednesday Comes on Tuesday

5/21/2014

 
"Let the name of the Lord be praised, both now and forevermore."  Psalm 113:2

"Carpe Diem"



Picture
This is my niece's last week of high school.  Over the past several years, I have taken her to school each Wednesday.  It helped her parents, and we had time in the morning to connect, to talk about her classes, or just to laugh and be silly.

Because of her parents' schedules, I had to take her to school this Tuesday--thinking that the following day--our Wednesday, would be our last.  But my niece finished her exams on Tuesday, and had no reason to return to school the following day.  So our last day became Tuesday, even though I did not know it at the time.

I hadn't really planned anything special--but I was looking forward to our one last Wednesday together:  to connect, to talk, or to laugh. 

I must learn to take my days as they come; to welcome and to enjoy each moment, each hour, and each miracle: even when the Wednesdays come on Tuesdays.

Every day is a good day if we strive to make it so.
