Look to this day
For it is life
The very life of life
In its brief course lie all
The realities and verities of existence
The bliss of growth
The splendor of action
The glory of power—
For yesterday is but a dream
And tomorrow is only a vision
But today, well live,
Makes every yesterday a dream of happiness
And tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well, therefore, to this day.
-Kalidasa
Kalidasa, Indian Poet and Playwright, Fifth Century A.D.
