FINISH EACH DAY....

A fun quote today with some sage advice. 

"Finish each day and be done with it.  You have done what you could.  Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can.  Tomorrow is a new day.  You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense." 

  ~Ralph Waldo Emerson~

    This is great advice, and I know this goat does it too. You have showed off his rectangular pupil very well.

    That is a very wise quote. I struggle to act on it though. My blunders haunt me.

    Wise words although not easily done as “old nonsense” is a stubborn goat and tends to travel with us into the present. :)

    I would love to pet that goat and even hug him if he would let me. I too am a person that long after I commit the blender it continues to haunt me

      Me too, he was a bit out of reach though so I didn't get to scratch his ears :) and I know what you mean.

    Hi Denise,
    Super image of the Goat, really wise words and as others have said, not always that easy not to be encumbered with the 'old nonsense', it somehow tends to follow you into tomorrow.
    Stay safe and well
    John
