just squeeze it

I love casual days. I mean honestly, when you are wearing flip-flops at work, how bad can life be?

Today, one of the women I work with came in wearing a t-shirt that said "Squeeze the day," along with a cute graphic of a person hugging a large heart. I liked it, and it inspired me to choose this quote:

"Today is the day in which to express your noblest qualities of mind and heart, to do at least one worthy thing which you have long postponed." -Grenville Kleiser

Squeeze the day. And have a great one.

"We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done." - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

As you face exams, you know what you are capable of doing...regardless of the grades you have made in the past, you have infinite potential to excel this week. Don't let any past disappointments define you, don't even let the expectations of your parents or teachers limit you...go out there and give it your best!

this day

"It is only possible to live happily ever after on a day-to-day basis." - Margaret Bonnano(not to be confused with Bonnaroo)

For some reason, when I read this quote, I hear a line from the chorus of that old hymn running through my head..."One day at a tiiiiiiime...sweet Jesus."

But it's true, if we start trying to tackle too many days at once...when we begin to worry about things that might happen tomorrow or the next day or two months down the road, that's when we become overwhelmed, and it keeps us from enjoying the beauty of today. If we let ourselves be weighed down by the worries or uncertainties of tomorrow, we will certainly miss out on the happiness that is possible by simply living this day to the fullest.

Have a happy day.

And then, once you make it past today, have a wonderful weekend.
