be the embracer

    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 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.

    Kālidāsa [600 – 1200 AD ]
    [Sanskrit poet and dramatist]
