NOT TODAY

All school work will not be completed today.
All internal conflicts will not be resolved today.
All of life's mysteries will not be revealed today.
All emotional quandaries will not dissolve today.
All the words in the dictionary will not be memorized today.

Physical perfection will not be achieved today.
Intellectual excellence will not be accomplished today.
Total enlightenment will not be attained today.

So sit down. Pick up the book of short stories by Anton Chekhov, the one your best friend gave you for no particular reason. Read the one titled, The Princess. Glance up every so often to admire the sun and the soft silouette of leaves on the stripped bed sheets.
