"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have 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."
Emerson


today this quote means eons to me. it has been on my bedside table for months now but today it speaks straight to the heart of things. does that ever happen to you? those divine moments when something strikes you so acutely and so differently from any other time you read it before then? those moments are testament to a larger understanding. i can feel comforted in knowing that there has been/is someone who understands the emotions that have been flooding my life this past week. mmm. delicious.

*here's to letting go of old nonsense, being serene and striving for a high spirit."
