What's to worry?

In memoriam - our beloved big brother Nasrullah.

My husband wrote in his website something that has inspired him a lot about how to live this life. It's a memory of a simple conversation he had with his beloved late big brother that he keeps very well in mind until today. This is the full text that he wrote:

My late big brother once told me that there are two days in every week about which you should not worry, two days that should be kept free from fear and apprehension. One of these days is yesterday, with its mistakes and cares, its faults and blunders, its aches and pains. 

Yesterday has passed forever beyond your control. All the money in the world can not buy back yesterday. You can not undo a single act you performed. You can not ease a single word that you said. Yesterday is gone forever, beyond recall. 

 The other day you should not worry about is tomorrow, with its possible adversities, its burdens, its large promise, and perhaps its poor performance. Tomorrow is also beyond your immediate control. Tomorrow's sun will rise, either in splendor or behind a mask of clouds, but it will rise. Until it does, you have no stake in tomorrow, for it is yet unborn. 

This leaves only one day for you to worry about - today. Anyone can fight the battles of just one day. It is only when you and I add the burden of those two awful eternities, yesterday and tomorrow, that we breakdown in despair. 

Then he smiled and asked me: "So, what's to worry?" 

May he rests in peace. Mimi.
