Today Is What Matters Most

We cannot change what happened yesterday it is dead and gone.
Tomorrow is beyond our reach, and uncertain for what it may hold.
Today is all we have to enjoy, so live to its fullest extent.
Enter into it with thanksgiving on your heart.
Take a deep breath filling your lungs with the air of today, 
Knowing that you have been given this precious gift yet one more time.
