Salutation of the Dawn

Sunrise with birds

Dawn at Green Lake

Sky at sunrise

“Look to this day, for it is life — the very Life of life.  In its brief course lie all the verities and realities of your existence:  the bliss of Growth, the glory of Action, the splendor of Beauty.  For yesterday is already 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.  Such is the salutation of the dawn.”
     — Sanskrit proverb
