This Day

By Kalidasa

Look to this day:
For it is Life, the very Life of Life
Within its brief span
Lie all the verities and realities of our existence:
The Bliss of Growth,
The Glory of Action,
The Splendor of Beauty.

For Yesterday is but a dream
And Tomorrow is but a vision.
But Today well lived makes
Every Yesterday a dream of Happiness
And every Tomorrow a vision of Hope.
Look well, therefore
To this day.

You may not be able to make it to practice, or do what you want, everyday. But you can make every day count towards your ultimate goal, whatever that may be.
