Do not dwell so firmly to mistakes <br />And the disappointments of the past, <br />When unknown opportunities lie ahead? <br />Profit by your mistakes with hope to last. <br /> <br />Yesterday is gone - tomorrow is unknown, <br />Today is the only definitive gauge <br />To determine your outcome in life <br />As father time turns each new page. <br /> <br />Each forthcoming day is an empty space, <br />A space that we should carefully fill <br />With noble deeds and tolerable thoughts <br />To conceive a worthy plan to promote good will. <br /> <br />So don't dwell on mistakes of the past, <br />Old failures and disappointments to nurture <br />To constantly fill your mind with useless thoughts <br />Will not aid you to seek a prosperous future.<br /><br />Joseph T. Renaldi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/don-t-dwell-on-the-past/
