Yesterday - Today - Tomorrow
There are two days in every week that we
should not worry about. Two days that should be kept 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 mask of clouds,
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 tomorrow may bring.
Let us therefore, live one day at a time!
