Rose Nini, dean, division of corporate and community

programs, Mercer County Community College, shares this Sanskrit poem

"in the hope that it will deepen our resolve to more fully live

each moment."

Look to this day,

For it is life,

The very life of life

In its brief course lie all the varieties

And realities of your existence.

The bliss of growth.

The glory of action,

The splendor of beauty.

For yesterday is already a dream

And tomorrow is only a vision.

But today, well lived, makes every

Yesterday a dream of happiness

And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
