Begin. Today.

Carpe diem .

Live as if it was your last day.

You only have right now.

You only live once.

We have heard these sayings so much they have become cliche. The meaning is real. Because, like it or not, none of us are getting out of here alive. 

So how do we make today the only day?

You know that thing you have been wanting to do; The book you want to write.  The stronger body you long to have. The relationship you want to repair. The water colors you want to play with. The dance class you long to take. The thing that lingers in the back of your mind. The thing that you convince yourself you  don't have time to do. 

Start it.  

Today. 

Take one small step in the direction of your dreams. Today.

Write for thirty minutes or even ten.

Take a walk or dance around the kitchen,

Make the phone call.

Go to the store and buy the paints.

Sign up for the dance class.

Just begin. Today.

When man takes one step toward God, God takes more steps toward that man than there are sands in the worlds of time . - The Work of The Chariot.

Once you begin, things seem to magically happen. The walk becomes a jog. The writing sessions become a story. A relationship is repaired.The paints become art.  One dance class leads to another.

You just have to begin.  Today.

And keep beginning on every TODAY you are given.
