Reflection Starter from Ralph Waldo Emerson

"When the daughter of Ralph Waldo Emerson was attending college away from her home, she wrote a letter to her dad concerning a mistake that continued to bother her. Here's the letter he sent back to his daughter:

"'Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt creep in; but get rid of them and forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day, and you should never encumber its potentialities and invitations with the dread of the past. You should not waste a moment of today on the rottenness of yesterday.'" - Source Unknown
