Starting Today

Date: 5/1/2006

Today I will delete from my diary two days: yesterday and tomorrow. Yesterday was

to learn and tomorrow will be the consequence of what I can do today.



Today I will face life with the conviction that this day will not ever return.



Today is the last opportunity I have to listen intensely, as no one can assure me that

I will see tomorrow's sunrise.



Today I will be brave enough not to let any opportunity pass me by, my only alternative is to succeed.



Today I will invest my most valuable resource: my time, in the most transcendental work: my life;



I will spend each minute passionately to make of today a different and unique day

in my life.



Today I will defy every obstacle that appears on my way trusting I will succeed.



Today I will resist pessimism and will conquer the world with a smile with the positive attitude of expecting always the best.



Today I will make of every ordinary task

a sublime expression,

Today I will have my feet on the ground understanding reality and the stars' gaze to invent my future.



Today I will take the time to be happy and will leave my footprints and my presence

in the hearts of others.



Today, I invite you to begin a new season where we can dream that everything we undertake is possible and we fulfill it,

with joy and dignity.



{SMILE} Have a good day and a better

one tomorrow!



Sincerely,

Chris & Dan
