I came across another thought provoking quote yesterday. I love John Wayne but had never thought of him as a philosopher or deep thinker but this is attributed to him:
Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clear. It’s perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we’ve learned something from yesterday.
John Wayne
This little quote got me to thinking about how many things come to us clear and perfect and how do we treat those things. For example our children, relationships, opportunities and miracles. How often do we take something perfect and mess it up. Oh, I know we are human and flawed so naturally we will make mistakes but knowingly make bad decisions? knowingly take the wrong route? knowingly tell God that we know better than He what we need or what needs to happen? I make many mistakes on a daily, nay, hourly basis but this little quote gives me cause to consider more carefully those gifts that are laid before me. Do I learn from my yesterdays? and can I make my tomorrows better than the day before?
