“Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget then as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.†--Emerson
THE OAK TREEA mighty wind blew night and day. It stole the Oak tree’s leaves away; Then snapped its boughs and pulled its bark, Until the Oak was tired and stark. But still the Oak tree held its ground; While other trees fell all around.The weary wind gave up and spoke: “How can you still be standing, Oak?â€The Oak tree said, “I know that you Can break each branch of mine in two; Carry every leaf away; Shake my limbs and make me sway. But I have roots stretched in the earth, Growing stronger since my birth. You’ll never touch them for you see, They are the deepest part of me. Until today I wasn’t sure, Of just how much I could endure. But now I’ve found, with thanks to you, I’m stronger than I ever knew.â€
