Simply put, "your agenda today" is the eschatological list of things that will impact you today, some of which you will be aware of and others that may be no less impacting which you will not consciously experience. In either case these are things that are on your agenda today.

Obviously, if you are alive you will be aware of some things you experience but there are other things you will experience only in your unconscious. What's on your agenda for today is imminent or inevitable. What's on your agenda today is predestined. You, nor anyone else or anything else can add to or subtract from your today's agenda. Your attempt to change your today's agenda is already on your agenda.

Your today's agenda is bracketed, so that nothing before it or after it can occupy space or time on it. Today will not share space or time with yesterday or tomorrow. Functionally speaking, today does not acknoweldge the existence of yesterday or tomorrow. This can be illustrated by a sign posted at the entrance of a country store which said "Cash today; credit tomorrow." Seeing the sign a man decided to return to the store on tomorrow. When he returned the same sign greeted him, He went away without credit and disappointed.

Although not subjected to clock time or calendar time, like clock time and calendar time your today consists of 24 hours, 1,440 minutes or 86,400 seconds. It does not necessarily begin one minute after midnight or on the first day of a month. Some occurrences on today's agenda may happen in a split second, some may be surprises, traumatic, tragic, painful or joyous. Some of them may turn your life topsy-turvy.

You will not be able to control the events of your today. When you think you have that will be an illusion because whatever you did or did not do was already on your today's agenda. You willl not be able to add to or subtract from your eschatological list for today. You may take comfort or discomfort in knowing that you played a role in determining the things listed on your agenda, no less than you determined who would be your parents and with the same satisfaction or dissatisfaction.

What will be for you today will be today. Know that your today's agenda came to pass, not to stay. And know that this question you now ask life has already been asked by life for you to answer: "So what?"
