THE TODAY


TODAY

This day is a special day, it is yours.
Yesterday slipped away, it cannot be filled anymore with meaning.
About tomorrow nothing is known.
But this day, today, is yours, make use of it.
Today you can make someone happy.
Today you can help another.
This day is a special day, it is yours.

[A Buddhist Reflects on Happy Living, 2004]
-Vijaya Samarawickama
