Rehearsing and preparing

Perhaps you’re preparing for a future event. Practicing, rehearsing, getting ready. This extended dress rehearsal is you doing the work of making sure you show up at peak performance.

All the while — amidst these preparations — today is not a dress rehearsal. Today is today; your one opportunity.

So live it. It’s the real thing. And in less than twenty-four hours, it will be gone forever.

Events surely dot the horizon, but the grand event that is today welcomes you. Even more: it invites your unique participation.
