At the end of the day you can either count the time left or look back on the moments that have passed with joy and happiness. The sum of the wonderful moments are more important and will last longer than anything that could subtract from it. The day ends with what you observe, not necessarily with what you deserve.
Observe the beauty that surrounds us, the song of the birds, the clean water in your glass.
If at the end of the day you forget how wonderful life can be, read the poem called The Sun by Mary Oliver to remind you.
In the song below by Van Morrison, Have I Told You Lately, he sings in a joking way, but the words tell otherwise. He is deeply grateful for the love, the friendship, and the gladness that fills his heart.
Say, have I told you lately that I love you?
Have I told you there's no one above you?
Fill my heart with gladness, take away my sadness
Ease my troubles that's what you do.
Well, there's a love that's divine
And it's yours and it's mine
And it shines like the sun
At the end of the day
We will give thanks
And pray to the One
The last thought of the day is also important. It is the thought that precedes your dream. What is your last thought at the end of the day? Is it not a whisper of good-night to the one you love?
