The First Day of Anything

September 15, 2004 by

There are landmark days and in my mind they are usually the first of something … and so here is a meditation on the first day …

1. The first day of school – fear
2. The first day of work – independence
3. The first day of piano lessons – failure
4. The first day of your period (sorry boys) – womanhood
5. The first day of Lent – denial
6. The first day of January – discipline
7. The first day of summer – freedom
8. The first day of marriage – bliss
9. The first day of parenthood – joy
10. The first day of church – community

Today was the first day of my new job. It promises much that it has been a long time since I had …

Independent thought
Freedom from oppression
Responsibility without Fear
Respect for my time, my person, my skill & my talent
Appreciation for a job well done

Isn’t it incredible that you can go for 2.8 years without realising what you were missing?…

It’s a new day for me and I couldn’t be more thrilled.
