Will songs be sung, somewhere in the future, about what occurred this morning, this particular fine day? Oh, probably not; legends begin on specific days but not terribly often and usually when you least expect it.
If it feels like it could be a legendary morning, it probably is not, but it might be. That’s the thing about legends: They can spring up at any time, but you never know if this is any time at all.
No one writes songs about what might have been “if only” — actually, I suppose they do — but the legends! The legends merit a special type of song, and you won’t know if it’s time for one of those songs until the time comes.
The only way to find out if this will be a legendary day is to stand up, step outside, and live this day. Time enough once it has all happened to look back and see.
