Monday's Quote

Or, actually, two quotes. As two are always better than one ...

     "Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them 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."

Ralph Waldo Emerson

..................................................................

     He stood on the tarmac and watched her little plane until it became a speck in the sky. He prayed for her safety, her peace, her ability to complete her work ... and her joy. "Give her joy," he said aloud, turning back to the terminal.

A Light in the Window, Jan Karon
