“Look to this day for it is life. In its brief course lie all the realities and truths of existence. The joy of growth, the glory of action, the splendor of beauty... Today well-lived makes every yesterday a memory of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well, therefore, to this day.”

Ancient Sanskrit Proverb
