Look Well to This Day

Anonymous, 50 B.C.

Look well to this day,

For it and it alone is life.

In its brief course

Lie all the essence of your existence:

The Glory of Growth

The Satisfaction of Achievement

The Splendor of Beauty

For yesterday is but a dream,

And tomorrow is but a vision.

But today well lived makes

every yesterday a

dream of happiness,

And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
