I have been watching “Why not, Shania Twain” on OWN and it has been very interesting watching her journey from her personal hell back to recording and now performing again.

This new song, which has been played on the local stations a lot lately, really spoke to me yesterday morning in the car on the way to work. So much so that I found myself crying while driving. Not out of sadness, but out of understanding about what the song means. What it meant to Shania personally and what we can take out of listening to it in our own lives.

Today is your day

You got what it takes you can win,

Today is your day to begin.
So don’t give up here, don’t you quit.
The moment is now, this is it
Because today is your day
And nothing can stand in your way
And today is your day
And everything’s goin’ your way

Oh today
Today
Today
Today

When somebody throws sticks and stones
All they can break are your bones
Cause life’s gonna kick around
And kick you again when your down
Because today is your day
And nothing can stand in your way
I said today is your day
And everything’s goin’ your way

Yeah today
Today
Today
Today


Just take one step at a time
Oh I promise that you will be fine
Today
Today
Today
Today


I say today
