Today

Written by Jacob Ibrag

Realize that we are finite and not without limitation. Hold

on to each morning sun, remember that it was never promised. This

new day is a gift and for whatever reason, it needed you in it. Smile. Too

many believe that forever is a place out of reach, forever wasting their lives

chasing this unicorn reverie. Smile, because forever is today. You are here

right now and for whatever reason, the day needed you to wake.
