Enjoy Today

Today will only happen once.  Tomorrow is around the corner.  Yesterday cannot be repeated. Today is the day you can change your life.  So when you get to tomorrow you can be happy with what you did today.  When you look back on yesterday you will be proud of yourself for changing.

I often wonder if I am making the right choices throughout the day.  Did I make the best out of the day that I have to live.  We often spend so much time worrying that today was a good day that we miss the opportunity to enjoy what is happening.

Does this mean that today is a wonderful day?  No but it is the only one you can truly live in.  I know for me I have made many changes day to day.  Yet, when I look back at my yesterdays I am happy with what I have done.  I know that I got through rough times.  I laughed at fun things.

Everyday I wake up I am excited about what the day will bring.  I do not worry about tomorrow because it is always one day away.  I know that if I make today a day when I don't think negative I can be proud when I look back a yesterday.

My life is like a roller coaster.  I climb up the hill.  I go around the curves.  I am flipped through the loops.  Finally coming back down another hill to slide into tomorrow.  I never know what I will meet at the top yet, I am excited to get up there and prove to myself that I made it.  As I go throughout the day I deal with so many things.  Yet, I do my best to be content with what I am doing knowing that things could change tomorrow.

When you have a chronic illness there is only thing that is certain.  There will be days where you could have done more yesterday than you can do today.  Today you may be able to do more things  today than you can do tomorrow.  So because of this live today with full gusto.

There you have it live today and enjoy it.  Live without regrets.  Don't be mad at what you could do yesterday and cant do today.  Don't worry about what you might not be able to do tomorrow.  Live in the present and you will see that you can enjoy each day even with all of the struggles that come your way.

For my fellow fighters keep on fighting and remember one day they will figure this out and we will have won.  Until then don't give up hope.  It is okay to rest on bad days,  but on the good days enjoy life to your fullest because you deserve it.    

There is so much more and remember this is something that I live with and am writing from my perspective.  Talk to a doctor if you feel you may have this or any other disease because without proper diagnosis you will never get the treatment you deserve.
