If tomorrow was Guaranteed...

If tomorrow was guaranteed,
it wouldn't matter if I called my friend today to see if she was doing ok.
If tomorrow was guaranteed,
it wouldn't matter so much if my spouse and I left for work with unkind words spoken and hanging in the air between us.
If tomorrow was guaranteed,
it wouldn't matter if I did the laundry instead of catching butterflies with my son.
If tomorrow was guaranteed,
it wouldn't matter if I turned down the offer of a walk or lunch with a loved one, in order to wash the floors.
If tomorrow was guaranteed,
it wouldn't matter if I stopped in to hold my new baby nephew for a few hours.
If tomorrow was guaranteed,
it wouldn't matter if I upheld a positive attitude or good example in carrying out the duties of my day.
If tomorrow was guaranteed,
it wouldn't matter so much if I went to bed with a bit of frustration in my heart towards a dear friend....
Because I would always have tomorrow to make it all right.

But I don't.
We don't.
None of us have a guarantee of tomorrow.

Do what you can today, with the hope of tomorrow in your heart.
But act in every situation like today may be the last day you have with a friend or loved one.
Tomorrow is not guaranteed.
