Can one day make a difference? Twenty four hours, not much. June 6. June 27. September 18. December 25. April 6. October 31. February 12. April 22. May 28.
On those days, something great, bad, wonderful, devilish happened, I am sure. Exactly what, I am not sure for all of them, but on some of them things happened that we celebrate even in this year. In a great play/musical the "One More Day" often rings through my mind. We all pass one day more of our life. Most often nothing of note happens on any one day. Yesterday there was 324 days until ?our mission. Now there is 323 days left. Am I different? Have I made great strides toward our mission. Am I fatter, more fit, closer to my Father? Or am I closer to becoming a failure in this quest?
One year has 365 days. Each day has 24 ours. How often is there a day in my/your life that is very significant? How often does a day, does an event within a day drastically change the direction we are pursuing? How often does one day change our focus, what we think about, what we pursue, what we are?
So many days seems insignificant when I am finally climbing into bed. I am questioning what happened today that I should remember? What changed? Who did I meet or whom did I serve that I will remember for a day, a week, or the rest of my life? Is every day just one more drop of water flowing in a river toward some destination that I know not of?
I don't know what tomorrow is bringing into my life. I don't know what is destined to happen. I wonder if I will fall into bed tomorrow night wondering the same things I am now. Do most of our days seem the same and very boring?
I am going to strive to make tomorrow different. How, I don't know yet, but I am going to ponder on it tonight and see if I can make tomorrow something special. I am the master of my destiny. I am the captain of my soul. Tomorrow I will report if I feel I have personally made a difference in the events of July 22, 2011.
