Years ago, I self-published a little book called GLAD DAYS LONG AGO. On the back cover I wrote the following. I believe it's true.

"Each and every day, each and every one of us, regardless of our circumstances, has a choice. We can squander our time fingering old welts, second guessing past decisions, and tormenting ourselves over the poor choices of others; or we can embrace a new day brimming with opportunities for doing justly, loving mercy, and building foundations for a bright new tomorrow. Time is precious; choose wisely." SC
