If one day when you wake up, you
would find on your bed a beautifully
wrapped present with delicate bows,
you would open it before even
washing your face, curious about
what is inside.......
Maybe what you find is something
you do not like very much...
then you would put away the
box wondering what to do
with the present......
But, if the next day
you find another present,
you would open it also
and, if this time you
find something inside that
you like very much........
A memory from someone
that is far away......
a beautiful clothing you
saw on a window shop.....
the keys to a new car......
a beautiful winter coat......
or just a beautiful flower
from somebody that
remembered you.....
This happens every day,
but we do not realize it...
Every day when we wake up,
it is there, before us, a present
sent to us by God....
a whole day to use in the
best possible way
Sometimes it comes with
problems, issues that we do
not seem to be able to solve.
Sometimes it comes with
sadness, deception, even
tears....
But other times it comes
full of surprises, happiness,
success and achievements....
What is important is that
every day we receive a present,
wrapped especially for us while
we sleep: THE NEXT DAY.
We are presented this box
with colored bows, no matter
what the day brings........
That day when we wake
up every morning is a PRESENT.
The present that life gives us.
It is not always what we wish
or what we hope for......
But it is the best for us,
what we need most,
what we have to learn.....
what we need to grow...
Open your PRESENT every day,
giving thanks first to the Creator
that gave it to you, without
thinking what is inside the box.
If today you do not receive
the present you wanted, wait
for the next one....and appreciate
what you received today.
Tomorrow.... Open your present
with love and enthusiasm,
because one day your dreams
and the life plan for you will
come inside the box,
beautifully wrapped for you...
Life does not care about what we want....just about what we need.....
And that is good
May you have a day full of blessings,
in which you can feel the loving
presence of your Creator, and
may the present of every day bring
you peace, spiritual growth, and
enlightment on all we still have
to learn about every day,
and the plan life has for us, every day.....
Yesterday is history.Tomorrow is mystery.
Today is a gift. That’s why it’s called ….
The Present!!!!
Treasure every moment that you have!
It's your life. Go out and make it extraordinary !
Thanks and Best Regards
