Today's a new day

Wed, Aug 20th 2014, 11:38 AM

Somebody said to me one evening, boy oh boy today was a terrible day when it appears that just about everything went wrong. Let's face it we all have days like that where nothing seems to go as planned, however, as I said to my friend that evening, tomorrow is a new day. That's right, it doesn't really matter what happened or didn't happen yesterday, for as today's title proclaims loud and clear, today's a new day. Yes indeed it is a brand new day full to the brim with wonderful opportunities for you to succeed and prosper, in all aspects of your overall life and affairs.
The trouble with a whole lot of people is this -- they simply refuse to let go of yesterday. They insist on hanging on to and reminiscing about everything that went wrong yesterday. As an example, on Facebook, just about every day it appears to me, someone puts up a post dealing with the injustices of yesterday, of yesteryear, like for example slavery. These kinds of events are long gone. So, why do people insist on hanging onto them? These kinds of people who are always bringing up the injustices of the past, need to finally let go of the past, and fully concentrate on the now, fully embracing today which is in effect a brand new beginning, which once embraced can indeed lead us to an exciting and very successful future.
Yes my friend, I don't really care what happened in the past, yesterday or yesteryear. I just need to be fully aware each and every morning as I awake, that today's a new day filled to the brim with exciting opportunities to succeed.
Of course, those who insist on living in the past and rehashing again and again the ills, the horrors of the past, are extremely negative people, usually with a great big chip on their shoulder due to low self-esteem, a bad self-image. We all need to do as Bob Marley so wisely advocated, and that is to free ourselves from mental slavery. Yes indeed we most certainly do.
We've all got to learn to leave the past behind once and for all and then start to live and indeed thrive in the now, for today's the only day over which we have complete control. Yes, today's a new day when you can get a brand new start, as you set out very optimistically for success city.
