for the first time

Are you bored?  Life piling up?  Everything seems mundane?

Stop and think of the first time that you did a thing.  It was probably exciting to learn something new.  You had patience with a problem because your store of energy was not exhausted.  Maybe you touched a new moment and it was beautiful.  But now, that is all gone, all lost, all mundane.

So decide in your mind that you will return to the first time.  Remember the excitement.  Remember the joy.  Remember the newness.  Do everything as if it were the first time.  Suddenly, the thing seems better, the mundane now has life.  Life is beautiful if we can just see it.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
