There are two days in every week about which we should not worry, two
days which should be kept 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 beyond our control. All
the money in the world cannot bring back yesterday. We cannot erase a
single word we said. Yesterday is beyond recall.
The other day we should not worry about is tomorrow, with its
possible adversities, its burdens, its large promises, and perhaps its
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 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 burden of those two
awful eternity's, yesterday and tomorrow, that we break down. It is not
the experience of today that drives us mad. It is the remorse or
bitterness for something which happened yesterday or the dread of what
tomorrow may bring. Let us, therefore, do our best to live one day at a
time.
