Embrace the miracle of Today's birth; the beginning of everything. Incapable of re-living or pre-living its ownership, our character bares definition by the gratitude displayed for every moment in its presence. It is renewal, joyful in its divinity. May we be strong enough to engage it, generous enough to share it and wise enough not to waste its invitations... Poem Of The Day 06/06/2018
