Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow         April 30, 1998

 It was an ordinary day, just like any other.  Yet this day 
went down in history as a very significant day to many people 
around the world.  Today, April 30th 1998, we celebrate Yom 
Ha'Atzmaut, the 50th Anniversary of Israel.  I send my special
regards to my Israeli subscribers!

I would like to share with my subscribers an essay, whose 
author I do not know, on the importance of every day.  

Long live Israel!

 "Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow"
   
         There are two days in very week that we should 
not worry about. Two days that should be kept free from 
fear and apprehension.
         One is YESTERDAY, with its mistakes and cares, its 
faults and blunders, its aches and pains.  Yesterday has 
passed, forever beyond our control.
         All the money in the world cannot bring back yesterday.  
We cannot undo a single act we performed.  Nor can we erase 
a single word we've said.  Yesterday is gone!
         The other day we shouldn't worry about is TOMORROW 
with its impossible adversaries, its burden, its hopeful promise 
and poor performance.
         Tomorrow is beyond our control.  Tomorrow's sun will 
rise either in splendor or behind a bank of clouds - but it will 
rise.  And until it does, we have no stake in tomorrow, for it is 
yet unborn.
         This leaves only one day - TODAY.  Any person can fight 
the battles of just one day.  It is only when we add the burdens 
of yesterday and tomorrow that we break down.
         It is not the experience of today that drives people mad - 
it is the remorse for something that happened yesterday, and 
the dread of what tomorrow may bring.  Let us therefore, 
LIVE ONE DAY AT A TIME.
