11/11/11

We’ve heard it everywhere: TV, radio, print - this date won’t come around again for another one hundred years.

Okay, I get that.

Of course, 1/1/01, 2/02/02, 3/03/03, 4/04/04, 5/05/05, 6/06/06, 7/07/07, 8/08/08, 09/09/09, 10/10/10 and next years’ 12/12/12 won’t be seen for another one hundred years either.

Is it really a big deal?

Isn’t it more important to realize we will never see ANY day again, EVER?

It’s not about the sequence of the days’ numbers, it’s about the time we’re given.

Just as each of us is unique, each day is unique. Each one of us is a gift and each day we get to participate in is a gift as well.

Few of us who are here now will make it to 11/11/11 of the 22nd century and those who do will hardly remember much about 11/11/11 of this 21st century.

Go forth and enjoy 11/11/11 in whatever way works for you. I’m a firm believer in celebrating everything – and I do mean EVERYTHING – every LITTLE thing too.

Just remember to make the most of all your days – celebrate all your days because you will never see any  of those days again either.

As the saying goes: Each day is a gift, that’s why it’s called the present!
