So instead of brooding over the days' events I referred to one of my inspirational sources. I always found this quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson to be a great way to live with myself.
"Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities 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."I read this quote several years ago and printed it. I posted it in my work-space to remind me to never carry the day's problems home with me. This printed quote was stored with all of my personal things I brought home . I found a place to display it now.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Very wise words... once it is done, no need to think about it. Sometimes, it's not easy to forget as soon as we would like but it's good to try, otherwise absurdities may come back to haunt us and they will certainly 'damage' our days after...
