This is a sequel to "today vs tomorrow" dated April 7th 2007.
Browsing through Facebook I saw someone said some interesting thing and it pulls me into writing this post. As I had said before, tomorrow is just an empty shell awaiting to be filled with something we call "today". And that tomorrow cannot happen before we complete today. And because of that, I had emphasized on how important it is for us to complete today with all that we have.
Now, the 2nd part of this is quite an irony. Now that we know tomorrow comes after today, we say, "OK, let's live today as there is no tomorrow coz we wouldn't know if there is really a tomorrow". And so we go and complete today while awaiting tomorrow. But the irony of this relationship is - Now that you had completed today, but tomorrow never arrives. Tomorrow is not here still. WHY? You asked yourself why is tomorrow not here yet? Why is it still TODAY? 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, and goes on.... It's still today.... Everytime we complete today and awaits tomorrow, what we get is just another today as when the so called "tomorrow" reaches, it will become "today." What an irony.
Points to ponder: Today is very important. Live it. Feel it. Appreciate it. You do not know how many Today you will have and you know that you will never have a Tomorrow =)

ReplyDeleteNo matter what happens, whether tomorrow arrives or not, do SEIZE the day!
I believe in putting least possible trust in tomorrow will complete my day at this present of moment.
