The Present is a Present

Have you ever heard this saying?
Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is mystery
Today is a gift.
That's why they call it the present.
My college friends and I used to chant that to each other when we were especially stressed -- like during finals or when the magazine was on deadline or that time the student center ran out of chocolate-peanut-butter ice cream.

I think I need someone to chant it to me now. I'm not particularly stressed, but I am apt to be distracted from my daily gift. I wrote more over at 5 Minutes for Parenting today.
