“God, thank you for waking me up this morning. I want to embrace every day, however limited my day may be, as a gift from God. I want to live this day to its fullest. I know there are things I can no longer do. I know I am facing daily limitations. But I want to focus on what I can do, not on what I cannot do. So help me God. I know this day will never be repeated. I know I cannot live it over again. Help me to live it to its fullest.” KnowsWantMayI CanHelpingCan DoMorningFocusEmbraceLimitationHelp MeThis DayWakingGift From GodGod Help MeWaking Me Up Author:Ed Dobson
“Otherwise I got out of bed on two strong legs. It might have been otherwise. I ate cereal, sweet milk, ripe, flawless peach. It might have been otherwise. I took the dog uphill to the birch wood. All morning I did the work I love. At noon I lay down with my mate. It might have been otherwise. We ate dinner together at a table with silver candlesticks. It might have been otherwise. I slept in a bed in a room with paintings on the walls, and planned another day just like this day. But one day, I know, it will be otherwise.” KnowsHas BeensTwoMightTogetherStrongRoomsMorningDogPaintingSweetWallOne DayBedTablesLaysLegsWoodsDinnerSilverThis DayMatesMilkMight Have BeenRipeNoonAnother DayPeachesCerealFlawlessStrong Legs Book:Otherwise: new and selected poems Source: Otherwise: new and selected poems

“The vestiges of pagan religion in Christian symbology are undeniable. Egyptian sun disks became the halos ... The pre-Christian God Mithras ... had his birthday celebrated on December 25 ... Even Christianity's weekly holy day was stolen from the pagans ... Christianity honored the Jewish Sabbath of Saturday, but Constantine shifted it to coincide with the pagans' veneration of the day of the sun ... To this day, most churchgoers attend services on Sunday morning with no idea that they are there on account of the pagan sun god's weekly tribute- Sunday.” IdeasChristianChristianityMorningSunHolyAccountsNo IdeaSundayThis DaySaturdayHonoredStolenPaganismTributePaganDecemberSabbathEgyptianSunday MorningHalosVenerationDiskConstantineChristian GodHoly DaysSun God Author:Dan Brown
