Just a reminder

Some days will be filled with enormous Triumph.

Some days will be rife with Disaster.

But Rudyard Kipling reminds us that, “if [we] can meet with Triumph and Disaster and treat those two impostors just the same…[ours] is the Earth, and all that’s in it”.

So long as the trajectory of your life is positive; so long as the mention of your name lightens the spirits of others and brings smiles of cheer and gladness to their lips; so long as the outcome of your life is the increase of Goodness throughout the world: do not despair over the days rife with Disaster.

Instead, content yourself with the knowledge that, though you have often fallen short, still there is some Good in the world, nourished in part by you and your works.

Be sure not to take any day - whether Triumph or Disaster - for granted.

Be grateful for each and every day, for each is another chance to do Good in the world.
