Look well to this day,
for it is life,
the very best of life.
In its brief course lie all the realities
and truths of existence
the joy of growth,
the spendour of action,
the glory of power.
For yesterday is but a memory,
and tomorrow is only a vision,
but today if well-lived,
makes every yesterday a memory of happiness
and every tomorrow a vision of hope,
look well therefore to this day.
