"Waste Not, Want Not"


“Waste no tears
Upon the blotted record of lost years,
But turn the leaf, and smile, oh smile, to see
The fair white pages that remain for thee.
“Prate not of thy repentance. But believe
The spark divine dwells in thee: let it grow.
That which the up-reaching spirit can achieve
The grand and all creative forces know;
They will assist and strengthen as the light
Lifts up the acorn to the oak-tree’s height.
Thou hast but to resolve, and lo! God’s whole
Great universe shall fortify thy soul.” Ella Wheeler Wilcox
