As I sit here in the relative darkness of the studio, uploading some more footage and wondering what to write about, I was once more drawn to the interesting array of available readings for a wedding day. I stumbled across something new, or at least new to me in that form.
While it would make a wonderful wedding reading, I think it is worth reading before, during and after, it's a great challenge to us all. So here it is...
There are two days in every week about which we should not worry,
two days which should be kept free from fear and apprehension.
One of these days is Yesterday with all its mistakes and cares,
its faults and blunders, its aches and pains.
Yesterday has passed forever beyond our control.
All the money in the world cannot bring back Yesterday.
We cannot undo a single act we performed;
we cannot erase a single word we said.
Yesterday is gone forever.
The other day we should not worry about is Tomorrow
with all its possible adversities, its burdens,
its large promise and its poor performance;
Tomorrow is also beyond our immediate control.
Tomorrow's sun will rise,
either in splendor or behind a mask of clouds, but it will rise.
Until it does, we have no stake in Tomorrow,
for it is yet to be born.
This leaves only one day, Today.
Any person can fight the battle of just one day.
It is when you and I add the burdens of those two awful eternities
Yesterday and Tomorrow that we break down.
It is not the experience of Today that drives a person mad,
it is the remorse or bitterness of something which happened Yesterday
and the dread of what Tomorrow may bring.
Let us, therefore, Live but one day at a time.

Well there's a challenge for us all.
Many of you will be planning event way into this year, be they weddings or other events. Enjoy the planning, rather than thinking of it as a chore to be gone through, enjoy the process. Do make use of our wide array of suppliers and venues which we know. If there is a question, just pick up the phone - we would be more than happy to help in any way. You might be surprised what we can help with.
I hope you have a great day today!
Until next time
Jay
