The Guest House ~ Rumi 
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
 
Sanskrit Proverb
Look to this day,
For it is Life,
The very life of life.
In its brief course lie all
The realities and verities of existence,
The bliss of growth, the splendor of action,
the glory of power – 
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.
