Every day is a good dayThe pupil said "I do not ask you about 15 days ago but what about 15 days hence? Come say a word about this. The teacher answered, "Every day is a good day." Every day is a good day is a super statement. But did you know its real meaning? A good day does not refer to a nice day, as compared to a bad day. It means the absolute, not relative day. Today is the absolute day. The only day in eternity of time. Today is never repeated. Everry day is fresh and new. Just as light is new each day, every day is a good day. But the good is not perfect or mighty. It is good in the orginial or absolute sense. Rain or shine, war or peace, sickness or health The past is only comleted. The future is only hope. Today is real. |
