What will this day bring.
If you let it. Live it. Drive it.
In a day I went from ignorance to knowledge.
In a day I went from existing to living.
In a day I learned the difference between love, hate and apathy.
In a day I woke up single and went to sleep at night married.
In a day I woke up childless and went to sleep as a mother.
In a day I woke up married and went to sleep single.
In a day I went from knowing fear to not letting fear stop me.
In a day I went from having religion to knowing faith.
In a day I woke up with no motivation and went to sleep burning with energy to change.
In a day I went from victim to victorious.
In a day I went from doing what I did to doing what I could.
In a day I went from not knowing I could to not accepting I could not.
In a day I went from three miles to ten miles.
In a day I went one hundred miles.
In a day I went from never understanding loss to becoming fatherless.
In one day I learned that I decide who I am regardless of what others think me to be.
In a day I went from being told I couldn’t to running three miles.
In one day I realized I was stronger than I ever knew and yet not nearly as strong as I will some day be.
In a day I went from beating myself up to giving myself a break.
In one day I discovered who I was is driving me to who I will be.
In this day ….I will learn what today will bring.
you learned about eggs and sinus cavities yesterday! lol
So true so true!
Did you really write this? You are incredible. I love the feeling of hope I get after I read your posts. Thank-you! Inspiring.
YOU ARE MY FAVORITE TODAY! Yes, I really wrote this. This afternoon the thoughts about “one day” and “differences” kept going through my head. So…there it is.
Thank you!
In a day you went from needing furniture to building your own.
I love you.
OK, Ms. Talented. Make you OWN room. LOL
Hahahahaha!
Well, we did make a table yesterday out of old wood just lying around. Maybe a room will be next.

Happy New Year Mae.
In one day I went from not knowing a Chatter Master to loving to hear the things of a poet
Aw…
You make me blush. Thank you for that.
Let me live each day as the one day when I will make a difference. I am sure glad one of our past days was when our lives touched and now I am blessed to read your great blogs. One day I meant a smiling friend and wow is she not only does she have beautiful smiling Irish eyes she is a fabulous author!!!
Ah! A day we share!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you Mary, for every kind word, kind moment, and moment of inspiration you give freely. This is what I value. You.
You remind me that there are not any pointless days. We have to look for the subtle meaning in the ‘quieter’ ones.
Those quiet days oft times sneak something so valuable on us, don’t they?
Possibly your best blog so far…. But the day is not over!
I’m glad you like it, Someone. It is probably better than today’s….since I haven’t done one.
Oh, Colleen, this is SO beautifully written! Isn’t it amazing all that can happen in a mere 24 hours?! I totally love this post–what amounts to meditation on time and transience. Well done, my friend.
Hugs,
kathy
Thank you very much Kathy. It is amazing to realize what happens within a day. Thank you thank you thank you.
Hugs returned (that makes a double dose of hugs today!)
As I have passed the test for “moron-ity”, I can but say there is some greatness in writing here…perhaps in a day, I can figure it out.
I would argue that you have not passed “that” test. Thank you so much for the kind words Koji. Always.
So I am just shy of being a moron? lol
You are way shy Koji.
Don’t make me go and say something nice about how brilliant you are.
How should I comment on a master piece like this …. Honest I don’t know what to say – except its fabulous written.
Thank you so much Viveka, that means a lot to me.
Colleen, you just touch all the strings … at times with your thoughts, words and writing.
Thank you, again, Viveka. Knowing others relate…. feels like a bonus.
Very inspiring!
Thank you!
It truly is amazing to learn what can happen in just a day’s time. So much can change so quickly. I need to learn to give myself more breaks and grace throughout the day. Fortunately, His mercies are new every morning. Lovely lovely post, Colleen!
Thanks Anka. I like your comment “His mercies are new every morning.” SO true. As our chances, abilities and energies.
Your writings are very creative. This post is inspiring and I love love it! All this great things accomplished in one day
Thank you SO much!
Truly wonderful things happen in a day.
I love that your posts always make me think and this is a great example of that! Great post!
Why thank you, thank you very much! (Elvis smile).
