Salutation To The Dawn

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 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.

– Kalidasa, Indian Poet
