I have a new philosophy. I'm only going to dread one day at a time.
Charles M. Schulz
“One day at a time”, can seem to be a cliché, but in reality, it brings to mind a deep truth. One so understood and known, yet in spite of that can easily be forgotten. Just today, that is all we have, and every day is ‘just today’. We can get ourselves in trouble (well I do) when I start to think of all the days that are in the future when I do that things can weigh on me. It is however an illusion, for when we get up each morning, it is today. So when we have burdens to carry, we just have to carry them for the day. Times goes by so fast, we can forget that reality….all we need do is focus on ‘now’. Easy, well no, nothing worthwhile is. Jesus said that worry about today, leave tomorrow alone, we have enough to be anxious about today.
