> "Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow"
>
> There are two days in every 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 adversaties,
> its burden, its hopeful promise and poor
> performance. Tomorrow is beyond our control.
>
> Tomorrow's sun will rise either in splendor
> or behind a mask 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 of bitterness
> for something which happened yesterday,
> and the dread of what tommorow will bring.
>
> Let us, therefore, live one day at a time.
