The last day in Oakdale

I don’t have much to say about this very sad day, and I am looking forward to watching today’s As The World Turns episode on my DVR this evening with a mixture of anticipation and dread.

The thought for today is a Sanskrit proverb that As The World Turns referenced years ago. Jennifer, Kim’s sister, used to quote this to Kim. Jennifer apparently learned the proverb from their minister, Reverend Booth. (Jennifer repeated this to Kim when she appeared as a vision to Kim during Kim’s 25th anniversary show back in 1997.)

“Look to this day. For yesterday is but a dream. And tomorrow is only a vision. But today, well lived makes yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well, therefore to this day.”
