Respect the past in the full measure of its desserts, but do not make the mistake of confusing it with the present nor seek in it the ideals of the future.
Try to be happy in this present moment, and put not off being so to a time to come,—as though that time should be of another make from this which has already come and is ours.
Without faith, hope and trust there is not promise for the future
and without a promising future, life has no direction, no meaning
and no justification.
