Today is a gift 🎁

What’s a quote that perfectly describes your outlook on life?

The other day, when we were on our way to the grocery store, the kids were watching Kung Fu Panda on DVD in the van.

I overheard Master Oogway 🐢, one of the characters in the movie, say to Po (the panda 🐼):

“Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it’s called a present.”

This quote made me smile because Master Oogway is right—today is truly a gift. Each new day we are given is a great blessing.

When I wake up in the morning, I thank God for blessing me with a new day of life, drawing me back to Him, and keeping me connected to my loved ones.

So, Master Oogway’s wise words in the children’s animated film Kung Fu Panda is my outlook on life. 🐼🙏🏽

“Ye are blood of my blood, and bone of my bone. I give ye my body, that we two might be one. I give ye my spirit, ’til our life shall be done.” — Jamie Fraser to Claire on their wedding day, from the novel Outlander (1991) by Diana Gabaldon

Today, is my 15th wedding anniversary, so this quote seemed very fitting! 🥰❤️

We were married on August 3, 2011.
About a few weeks after we got married.

Happy anniversary to us!
