Just For Today

Just for today ...

• I'm going to pretend I won the lottery, so that I can buy a new car for the young girl behind me in the grocery who left the store with her package of duct tape, then worked feverishly in the parking lot to use it to hold together the bumper of her old car.
  


• I'm going to be really, really thankful for that one person who noticed how hard I work (and for that family of deer I noticed this morning).
  


• I'm going to be proud that I delivered on a promise that I made two months ago. Even if it was to my rabbit. (He finally got his new Amish-built hutch and moved from the damp, dark garage into the courtyard by the fountain.)
  


• I'm going to accept the fact that while I may not be as perfect as everyone around me, I am authentic. I am sincere. And this is how God made me.
  


• I'm going to approach tomorrow with a pay-it-forward mindset ... because I'm WAY too blessed to do it any other way.
