October 18
Today I am reminded of how fragile life is. I cannot
describe how important it is to let those around you know how much they mean to
you, and to live each day to the full and without fear. This life is precious
and so short and none of us know what day will be our last. God has blessed all
of us with unimaginable gifts and talents, and it is never too late to start
using them. I believe that each and every one of us has been placed on this
earth with a purpose, not to be ordinary, but to be extraordinary. Being extraordinary
does not mean that you have to be a hero or change the world; it can simply
mean that you live each day with purpose and with the good of others in mind. Try
new things daily, take pleasure in the small stuff, laugh often, live passionately,
and surround yourself with the people that make it all worthwhile.

thanks: Today I am thankful for my beautiful Emily who is patient and gracious
enough to teach me guitar, for a best friend who is my guardian angel, and for
roomies who make this college town feel like home.
How will you make today extraordinary?
Carly, your blog is so inspirational!
