Perspective

I subscribe to A.Word.A.Day and much as I enjoy the words (today's word is nyctophobia: an abnormal fear of night or darkness), I always look forward to the closing A THOUGHT FOR TODAY, today's being particularly apt:

It ought to be plain

how little you gain

by getting excited

and vexed.

You'll always be late

for the previous train,

and always in time

for the next.

-Piet Hein,

poet and scientist

(1905-1996)
