Just another day ???

I know so many others have days like these..." Just another day" ....They start out like any other day, they even progress and eventually end just like "any other day"...I have alot of those,"any other day" days... But I am trying to appreciate the "just like any other day", day.....Because I realize that there is an alternative or an opposite to any other day....Just for now, I am going to look at the glass as "half empty"...
The opposite to "any other day" could be " A day like no other day"...it could be a day of unmeasurable sadness and loss, it could be a day like any other day, of living in fear of my life because my beliefs are what get people imprisoned and tortured and killed where I live.
The opposite to my "any other day" could mean, living on the streets and not knowing where my next meal will come from, how I will feed my children, or not even knowing their whereabouts because they were taken from me and sold into slavery....Yes, these really are the types of any other days that are being lived out by so many others..
I am learning to appreciate my "Just like any other day"....And I will be urged to pray for those that are living out days of horror and pain and loss .....
I can only hope that just by reading this today, you will want to take just a moment out of your "Day like any other day" and say a prayer for those that are living out theirs like this....
