It wasn't earth shattering. It didn't blow my mind. It was a quiet, simple revelation. One that I needed and will continue to hold on to.
I spend a lot of time planning, day dreaming, and otherwise thinking about tomorrow. I was so swept up in this notion of being prepared for what the next day will bring that I realized I had missed today.
I had missed the thousands of tiny moments and details that made today amazing. I was blinded by the glowing promise of tomorrow, next month, next year. Meanwhile, today, this moment, slowly went away, unnoticed, under appreciated.
Yesterday I did the same thing. I planned and scheduled. I prepared and I budgeted. I had hopes for the new day.
Today was the new day. The day I focused so much time on.

For tomorrow. Which will never come. Instead it'll be just like today. Unless I break the cycle. Let go. Focus. Enjoy the moments that make today so good.
I will focus on the present. On the details all around me. I will appreciate all the day brings so that tomorrow can be appreciated, too.
I will hold on to today.
