Caravan to Midnight”-Robin Trower
All of life is a caravan to midnight. The recovery groups have really got this concept figured out. They make constant use of the phrase “just for today.”
Everything is about today, as today is the only time over which we have any control. And that control is only with respect to ourselves and:
1. How we feel and what we do to improve how we feel
2. How we choose to act on the world
By placing our attention on these two things, we have an opportunity to improve the quality of our lives today. We have absolutely no control over tomorrow and we cannot change what happened yesterday. We can, however, do (or not do) virtually anything on the caravan to midnight.
We can live in appreciation just for today. We can look for the positives in our lives just for today. We can spend time doing something (like listening to classic rock) that brings us great joy just for today. Or not.
What are you going to do on your caravan to midnight?
