SEPTEMBER 7: “Remember your good memories, but live for today and keep the memories behind you.” --JODI K. ELLIOTT The stuff of our memories comprise who we have become. Each recollection is akin to an ingredient in a simmering pot of stew. The full flavor of our lives is enhanced by each additional experience whether it be painful or joyful. Our experiences have a way of dovetailing, of grouping themselves, perhaps even tailoring themselves, to provide us the best advantage. So human is our tendency to linger in thought on past times that we fail to take advantage, to be fully present in the moment which is assuredly making a necessary contribution to the total panorama of our lives. Who are we to judge the value of any single experience? It’s how all experiences have mingled, that we must trust. We can be certain, in retrospect, that those situations that created the most inner turmoil also offered us the most as growing, developing women. THE EXPERIENCES OFFERED TODAY, IN THE 24 HOURS AHEAD, ARE SIGNIFICANT BECAUSE THEY ARE UNIQUE. I WILL CHERISH THEM FOR THE ADDITION THEY ARE MAKING TO MY TOTAL PERSON.
