Bows & Errors

Today is the first day of the rest of your life. It’s a cliché we hear when we choose to make a big decision or are faced with a move or other “life-changing” event. But when you think about it, every single day is the first day of the rest of your life. Every sunrise is the first one on the day you choose to live your life. Every sunset is the ONLY sunset on a day where you may have stumbled or made mistakes.

We often (myself included) get shackled to a calendar, to the manifestation of time that humanity created to mark the passage of years. We plan to start on a Monday or a Sunday or the 1st or the 31st or the next month…instead of choosing the day like we absolutely can.

So this June 1st, 2026…is a day. It is the first day. It is a day to love and celebrate the person you are and to choose to make it the first day of the rest of your incredible life. It is a day to start going to the gym. To stop smoking. To reach out to that old friend. To ask that person on a date. To live.
