Just For Today
When I got back to my office I put DD the bunny on my
lap. I wrote out a long, detailed 2Do
list. It depressed me to no end.
“This list is weighing on me before I even start,” I said to
DD. I crumpled it up and threw it away.
Across the top of a new sheet of paper I wrote ‘What I Got
Done Today.’
At the end of the day I hadn’t finished everything on the
original list, but I was happy with what I’d accomplished.
“Sometimes it’s just a matter of adjusting the way you think
about something,” I said to DD as I put him in his cage for the night.
DD hated clichés, but I hit him with one anyway.
“It’s like thinking about doing without something for the
rest of your life versus avoiding it one day at a time. You’re happier at the
end of one day if you don’t worry about the next.”
Today I will focus just on today.
Fawlty Showers 2 is a work of fiction. Any similarity
