Good Morning. Here is a great thought for the day: At a Special Olympics track meet, a young girl had just won the 50-yard dash and was jumping up and down all excited. She yelled out to her parents, "Look, Mom and Dad, I won!" Her parents instantly burst into tears. At the awards ceremony, the young girl proudly stood there as a medal was placed around her neck. Then she ran over to her parents, who were crying now even more than before. The three of them hugged... as the parents kept crying. A Special Olympics official who had watched this whole scene became concerned and went over to the parents and said, "Excuse me, is there anything wrong?" Through her tears, the mother said, "No, nothing's wrong. Everything's right... We just heard our daughter speak for the first time."
"Each morning is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When the sun rises tomorrow this day will be gone forever, in its place will be something you have left — may it be something good. Follow your heart, it knows what to do."
