Too Many Days At A Time

Worry about today only

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 beyond our immediate control.
Tomorrow’s sun will rise, whether 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.

Any man can fight the battles of just one day. It is when you
and I add the burdens of two awful eternities – yesterday and
tomorrow, that we break down.

It is not necessarily the experience of today that disturbs one’s
peace of mind. It is oftentime the bitterness for something
which happened yesterday and the dread of what tomorrow may
bring.

Let us therefore live one day at a time.
