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 beyond 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
yet unborn.
This leaves
only one day, "Today",
and anyone
can fight the battles of just one day.
It is only
when you and I add the burden of those awful eternities, Yesterday, and
Tomorrow, that we break down.
It is not
the experience of Today that drives people mad,
it is the
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

~ The Serinity Prayer~
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
To change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
