There are two days in every week 
about which we should not worry, 
Two days which should be kept free 
from fear and apprehension.

One of these days is "Yesterday" 
with its mistakes and cares, 
its faults and blunders, 
its aches and pains.
Yesterday has passed forever beyond our control. 
All the money in the world cannot bring back Yesterday. 
We cannot undo a single act we performed; 
we cannot erase a single word we said. 
Yesterday is gone.

The other day we should not worry about is "Tomorrow" 
with its possible adversities, its burdens, 
its large promise and poor performance. 
Tomorrow is also beyond our immediate control. 
Tomorrow's sun will rise, either in splendor or 
behind a mask of clouds, but it will rise. 
Until it does, we have no stake in Tomorrow, 
for it is yet unborn.

This leaves only one day, "Today", 
and anyone can fight the battles of just one day. 
It is only when you and I add the burden of those awful eternities, Yesterday, and Tomorrow, that we break down.
It is not the experience of Today that drives people mad, 
it is the remorse or bitterness for something 
which happened Yesterday and the dread of what 
Tomorrow may bring.
Let us, therefore, live but one day at a time

~ The Serinity Prayer~
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
To change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
