HEPPNER Eileen Saling, Office Manager Justine Weatherford, Local News Laura Craig, Composing Patti Saling, Composing to IONE X1NGTON HEPPNER f) u TOO TOMORROW i By Tom "How to Live Two Days at a Time" Everybody in Heppner knows what a day is? It can be a 24-hour period marked by mostly equal parts of darkness and light. More commonly a day is the period of light marked from sunrise to sunset. When you stop to think about it a day as we define it is very arbitrary; full of markings set down by legislators, scientists, astrologers and even theologians. These days are full of attributes and divisions be it daylight savings, Zulu time, Sideral days, Holy days or "The Days of Our Lives," as understood on soap operas. ' Yes, everybody in Heppner knows what a day is? We all know that people are born into the world to live a number of days, and we have the insurance actuary tables to prove it. Now if I read correctly, days , were here before the appearance of man. If experience holds true days will continue after most of us are dead and gone. Within these days we observe the rain falling on the fellow down the road. If we give him the benefit of the doubt we can safely say that the rain indeed falls on the just and unjust. In the framework of this day we see time and chance happening to us all. We may smart at daylight savings time. We may find a certain amount of wisdom in hearing that life should be lived "One day at a time." but how else can it be lived? Is this a great truth or just a disorganized way of saying that we shouldn't store up all our hopes in tomorrow? The Second Day Since this is my last column for the Gazette-Times I am going to attempt to share with you a glimmer of the existence of a second day. Man does not come into this world to live through a number of days which are already here. Rather each man brings into the world a number of days in which to live. This is not a play on words. To put it bluntly we all live two days at a time. The day we are actually living in is traveling through a second day marked by the turning of the earth on its axis. The only thing these days have in common is that they arrive and depart together. One is fixed but the day which we actually live in operates on a completely different dimension. One is the day of happenings. The other day just happens between sunrise and sunset. Little if anything different is happening in this day than happened the day before or will happen the day hence. When poets and prophets speak of days overtake or catch we might wonder what day is it that can overtake or catch up with anybody? I cannot show you the day I speak of and it is difficult to sense, for we are literally dressed in these days as we travel through our days here. One day is the day which the Lord hath made. The second is the day He has given. It is useless for anyone to observe the first day if they do not know of and honor the second. Music-makers will be Dewayne and the Plainsmen.
