Anyone can fight the battles of just one day. It is only when you and I add the battles of those two awful eternities, yesterday and tomorrow, that we break down. It is not the experience of today that drives us mad. It is the remorse or bitterness for something that happened yesterday or the dread of what tomorrow may bring. Let us therefore do our best to live but one day at a time.
Richmond Walker was the author of Twenty-Four Hours A Day, a daily meditation book for sobriety. It is popularly known in Alcoholics Anonymous as "The Little Black Book."
