Each day we can wake up and choose to see life as a gift and to be
fully present in that day. We cannot always control the outcome,
but we can control our reactions. Each day we can bring all we have
to that day, choosing to live it fully, seeing it as a great gift. Each day
we can train our mind not to obsess on regret, nor to worry for tomorrow
but to be in this present moment. Each day we can be grateful for
what has happened that day. And we can choose not to judge our lives
from moment to moment (am I happy, successful, unhappy,
a failure, good, bad) but simply to live our life.

''Every morning, when we wake up, we have twenty-four brand-new
hours to live. What a precious gift! We have the capacity to live in a way
that these twenty-four hours will bring peace, joy, and happiness to ourselves and others.''
