Daily Wisdom – Motivational Podcast – Day 844 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond
I want to share with you an experience which I had yesterday. As I was walking, I passed a young couple, and the woman looked at me and waved and I said hello, and they said hello to me. Interestingly enough, they asked me, “How are you doing?”
I said, “Thank God, very well.”
The man answered back, “Great.”
I asked him, as he was walking right by me, “What about you?”
He said, “Better every day.”
I was so astonished by that beautiful answer, better every day. Imagine seeing your life as though every single day is a simple yet focused entity on its own, and every single day you imagine that this day is the last day of your life and you try to make it better than the day before. By doing this, you look at your life and try to improve it continuously, and that’s what this man said to me: better every day. This means to me, and I’m not sure of all the details, but I can only assume that this man had analyzed his life that morning and thought that day to be better than the day before. What a beautiful thing to do, what a beautiful thought, what a beautiful opportunity to share with others the way to look at life, and so I’ve decided to do the same thing.
From now on, when I’m asked, “How are you today?” I will say, “Thank God, better today than it was yesterday.” This is an answer which I’ve decided to incorporate in my own life, in my own ways. Why? These words from that person touched me. I don’t know that person and I might not ever see them again but you have to realize that everything that you see in life, everything that happens is not a haphazard circumstance; it doesn’t just happen by itself.
The reason why the person was there at that very moment, right when I was walking by them and this interaction was to teach to each other but certainly to me, a lesson, a message, and that’s what it was, and when I heard those words, immediately in my mind I was thinking, “What a beautiful thought. Is my day today better than it was yesterday?” Indeed, it is. The fact that I’m given one more day, one more concept one more moment means that my mission is not finished and it should be better today than it was yesterday. Here’s a beautiful thing: let’s say that today doesn’t seem to be better.
Well, then it’s an opportunity for me to change that and make it better. So either way, if it is better, good for me. If it’s not better, then make a change. Now, it’s greater and better, and that’s what this message was all about. I took it to heart, maybe you should.
