Look to this day, For it is life, the very life of life.

In its brief course lie all the verities and realities of your existence;

the bliss of growth, the glory of action, the splendor of beauty.

For yesterday is but a dream And tomorrow is only 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, such is the salutation of the dawn.

- The Sufi, 1200 BC
