![On a light wood backdrop, a sheet of paper torn from a notebook with a typewritten paragraph: "Finish every day..." The text is in the body of the post. Above the paper are the edge of a white mug on a white macramé coaster and date stamp. At the top right is a vintage green typewriter. Below it are a roll of grey washi tape and a wooden stamp with a floral stem image. A partial piece of eucalyptus leaves at the bottom left.](https://andreahunterstudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Typewritings-04-1024x768.jpg)
Finish every day and be done with it. For manners and for wise living it is a vice to remember. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it well and serenely, and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense. This day for all that is good and fair. It is too dear, with its hopes and invitations, to waste a moment on the rotten yesterdays.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
