Beginning Today
Beginning today I will
no longer worry about yesterday.
It is in the past and the past will never
change.
Only I can change by choosing to do so.
Beginning today I will no longer worry
about tomorrow.
Tomorrow will always be there,
waiting for me to make the most of it.
But I cannot make the most of tomorrow
without first making the most of
today.
Beginning today I will look in the mirror
and I will see
a person worthy of my respect and
admiration.
This capable person looking back at me
is someone I enjoy spending time with and
someone I would like to get to know
better.
Beginning today I will cherish each
moment of my life.
I value this gift bestowed upon me in
this world and
I will unselfishly share this gift with
others.
I will use this gift to enhance the lives
of others.
Beginning today I will take a moment
to step off the beaten path and
to revel in the mysteries I encounter.
I will face challenges with courage and
determination.
I will overcome what barriers there may
be
which hinder my quest for growth and
self-improvement.
Beginning today I will take life one day
at a time,
one step at a time.
Discouragement will not be allowed to
taint
my positive self-image, my desire to succeed
or my capacity to love.
Beginning today I walk with renewed faith
in human kindness.
Regardless
of what has gone before,
I believe there is hope or a brighter and
better future.
Beginning today I will open my mind and
my heart.
I will welcome new experiences.
I will meet new people.
I will not expect perfection from myself
nor anyone else:
perfection does not
exist in an imperfect world.
But I will applaud the attempt to
overcome human foibles.
Beginning today I am responsible for my
own happiness
and I will do things that make me happy .
. .
admire the beautiful wonders of nature,
listen to my favorite music,
pet a kitten or a puppy, soak in a bubble
bath . . .
pleasure can be found in the most simple
of gestures.
Beginning today I will learn something
new;
I will try something different;
I will savor all the various flavors life
has to offer.
I will change what I can and the rest I
will let go.
I will strive to become the best me I can
possibly be.
Beginning today.
And every day.
Just a thought, but as I often think of
you
and realize how much God loves you,
sometimes I think we need to also love
ourselves
through His eyes.
God Bless You
