Celebrate after the celebration


We celebrate the new year by raising our glasses and shouting the words, mazel tov or salute or cheers.
On this arbitrary day in January, well after the celebrations and the resolutions that have already gone the way of last year's resolutions, I want to remember that each day is a gift.
We are reminded much too often of the tentative nature of life. How quickly and often unfairly it can be taken away.
This from a dear friend who is waging war on cancer:
"One day at a time -- and MAKE SURE THAT YOU ENJOY THIS ONE."

Thinking of you Terry.
