Thought for Thursday. . . Salutation to the dawn

Sunrise over the Waimea estuary

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 splendour 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 to the dawn.
