There is no such day. That “One day” also lasts only for a day. It may arrive but it will fail to deliver all of its promises.
Even if that “One day” arrives,
Does it meet your expectations?
It may give you temporary excitement, enjoyment and elation but does it give you lasting satisfaction?
Does it turn out to be as grandiose as you envisaged?
Does this “One day” put an end to your longing for another “One day”?
Does this arrival at “One day” suddenly make your subsequent days rosy?
If the answer is yes, can you be absolutely absolutely certain about it?
Do not be in a hurry to answer. Examine and you will arrive at the true answer through visceral understanding, not the intellect.
Look, observe and see it for yourself.
