Ralph Waldo Emerson's daughter was attending school away from her home community. In a letter to her father, she indicated that she was concerned about a past mistake that continued to haunt her. Emerson wrote the following to his daughter: "Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept 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." Sounds like great advice for dealing with the small as well as big mistakes that will inevitably enter our lives.  Quote this article on your site | Views: 226 | Print | E-mail
