Each day we awake
We have one more day,
One more day in our lives.
Eventually we may realise
That each day isn’t just one more day,
It is one less day in our lives.
So with that in mind
We must start to value things,
Value things that really matter,
That really matter in our lives
As one more day in our lives
Will one day no longer be there.

Makes sense .. Makes even more sense as one gets older .. I guess that depending on the way one looks at it, it could make even less sense tomorrow for example .. perhaps .. Neville

Good write Gold. How many more millions of years have us two got left?! lol.
Thanks Orchi. More than we can count. LOL
Tomorrow never comes, its always today
Today is so important Norman and we must enjoy every one of them.

I have always lived for today my friend, which funnily enough has always attracted criticism
A great message carpe diem. If one believes there are a set number of days that one has then they as time are invaluable and should be spent very carefully. A wonderful write my friend
Most kind soren and much appreciated.
Andy
