I have more than enough to handle today,
without dragging along yesterday's baggage too.
I must balance today's books,
if I am to have a chance tomorrow.
So I ask myself if I have erred
and how I can avoid repeating that particular behavior.
Did I hurt anyone, did I help anyone, and why?
Some of today is bound to spill over into tomorrow,
but most of it need not
if I make an honest daily inventory.
Let me be . . .
Wise enough to know when I am wrong,
Strong enough to see where I am weak,
and Brave enough to face myself when I am afraid.
