The best advice

The best advice I can give anyone is live each day like it will be your last. If you succeed in doing this it will not only help you live a more wholesome and fulfilling life but it will also help much of your stress, anger and fear go away. If today was your last day, what would you do? Would you let traffic upset you? Or would you kindly let others who may need to be somewhere important go? Would you let a squabble with a co worker throw your day off? Or would you smile and thank them for their opinion and go about your day?

I believe that even Hitler would have been a much more pleasing person had he lived every day as if it were his last. There is a song by a great band that also begs this question. If today was your last day by Nickleback. My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day's a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had, if today was your last day?
What if, what if, if today was your last day?
Against the grain should be a way of life
What's worth the price is always worth the fight
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try
So live like you're never living twice
Don't take the free ride in your own life
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?
And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd finally fall in love if today was your last day?
If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it's never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life
Let nothing stand in your way
'Cause the hands of time are never on your side
If today was your last day and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past?
Donate every dime you had?
And would you call those friends you never see?
Reminisce old memories?
Would you forgive your enemies?
And would you find that one you're dreaming of
Swear up and down to God above
That you'd finally fall in love if today was your last day?

Today I challenge you do do this and live like it is your last day. If you can do this I promise you peace and love. I love you all. Until next time, Sterling out.
