The word day is a combination of three simple letters: D-A-Y, yet from these simple letters emanates a magical power which one can absolutely feel. What is the secret behind this magnificent power? Do we truly feel it within us? Does this power affect our lifetime? Let’s take a look…

Life is a collection of days; some of these days are good some others are not-so-good. In fact, life is like a rainbow which requires sun and rain to remain colourful, yet our days require happiness and challenges, success and failure, smiles and tears to be worth living. Every day is a new opportunity to “breathe deeply”. Do not count the number of breaths you take. Rather, enjoy the moments that take your breath away; take some time and think about the way you spend these moments. Every day is a new day to open your eyes, to look at your beloved friends and family to see yourself in their eyes. Every day is new day to smile to people in the street and to spread the magical feelings of satisfaction and beauty, which you have translated into a simple yet infectious smile. Every day is a new day to acquire experiences through committing mistakes, fortunatey great mistakes can turn into great lessons.

Be certain that these lessons have a tremendous impact on building your character. Every day is a new day to read great books to check out their pages and to write some meanigful comments. Every day is a new day to enjoy the warmth of sun’s rays touching your checks, to enjoy the relaxing colours of the sunset and sunrise to leave behind night with its memories and to welcome the morning with its dreams. Everyday is a new day to cultivate faith in yourself; it is faith and enthusiasm for something that make life worth living. Every day is a new day to light a candle in someone’s life, to leave footprints in someone’s heart, to be someone’s angel. Every day is a new day to enjoy the earth’s fellowship. It’s a real chance to belong to the human community with all of its achievements, crises, and paradoxes and most of all to have a free ticket for a free trip around the sun every year. Every day is a new day to be grateful and thankful to God for granting us new days and new opportunities.

All The Best,
