Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow
There are two days in every week about which we should
not worry, two days which should be kept free from fear and apprehension.
One of these days is YESTERDAY with its mistakes and cares,
its faults and blunders, its aches and pains. YESTERDAY has
passed forever beyone our control.
All the money in the world cannot bring back YESTERDAY, We
cannot undo a single act we performed; we cannot erase a
single word we said. YESTERDAY is gone.
The other day we should not worry about is TOMORROW with
its possible adversities, its burdens, its large promise and poor performance.
TOMORROW is also beyond our immediate control.
TOMORROW'S sun will rise, either in splendor or behind a mask
of clouds - but it will rise. Until it does, we have no stake in
TOMORROW, for it is as yet unborn.
This leaves only one day - TODAY. Anyone can fight the
battles of just one day. It is only when you and I add the burdens
of those two awful eternities - YESTERDAY and TOMORROW that
we break down
It is not the experience of TODAY that drives us mad - it is
remorse or bitterness for something which happened YESTERDAY
and the dread of what TOMORROW may bring.
Let Us, Therefore, Live But One Day At A Time
