What will you do with your extra day?

All of us complain that we never have enough time to accomplish the things on our to-do list. We whine and complain about wanting more hours in the day, more days in the week ad nosium. What if there was a way to capture an entire day. To literally "Carpe' Diem!" We are now offering, free of charge, an extra day. Here is how it works, every 4 years, we have extra time left over. Don't ask me how it works, I think it is like the dregs of life or that last piece of chicken on the platter thing. Anyway, today only, February 29th, you can experience your extra day. Unfortunately, once it is gone, it is gone. I know there will be some of you who just go on with life without paying much attention. You will go to work, school, etc. and when the sun sets, you will have spent today as you probably do every other day. You will not see today as the opportunity to take care of that necessary thing that you have been putting off, or to tell that certain someone that certain something that you never tell them. I think we will need to brand this extra day in order to get the word out. What if..... we call it leap day! What if we take that concept of seizing the day and apply it to the one day that we must leap upon. Now we run the risk that some will misunderstand and maybe even leap over this day, but we must be more intentional in our message. Please email this to everyone on your list, no wait, please don't. Don't waste another minute of your day reading this blog. Go leap, leap with all your might. This is your day. Your one extra day, go for it!

E.R. discovers the flaw of post-modernisem

Powerful! My favorite line is when he cries... "I need someone who will look me in the eye and tell me how to find forgiveness 'cause I am running out of time."
