Everything is optional, and every option holds a promise, and in every promise there's a plan for the "best of your life."
I consider every single day to be the single most important day in the history of forever, at this time!
Do you know what today is...??? Right! The single most important day, EVER... so far!
So, whatever you chose, or may yet choose, celebrate it.
