SALUTATION TO THE DAWN
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 but a dream,
And tomorrow is but 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 to the dawn.

It's Hot Air Balloon Day!
Salutation to the Dawn
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 but a dream
And tomorrow 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 to the dawn.
- Kalidasa, Indian Poet
