Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow
~Unknown~
There are two days in very week that we should not worry
about. Two days that should be kept free from fear and apprehension.
One is YESTERDAY, with its mistakes and cares, its faults and
blunders, its aches and pains. Yesterday has passed, forever beyond our control. All the
money in the world cannot bring back yesterday. We cannot undo a single act we performed.
Nor can we erase a single word we've said. Yesterday is gone!
The other day we shouldn't worry about is TOMORROW with its
impossible adversaries, its burden, its hopeful promise and poor performance. Tomorrow is
beyond our control. Tomorrow's sun will rise either in splendor or behind a bank of clouds
- but it will rise. And until it does, we have no stake in tomorrow, for it is yet unborn.
This leaves only one day - TODAY. Any person can fight the
battles of just one day. It is only when we add the burdens of yesterday and tomorrow that
we break down. It is not the experience of today that drives people mad - it is the
remorse for something that happened yesterday, and the dread of what tomorrow may bring.
Let us therefore, LIVE ONE DAY AT A TIME.
