"My yesterdays are like a beautiful dream with shadows of sadness," says Nargis (above ). "Tomorrow is also a very beautiful dream, and in my new hope I am sure to 'remould it nearer to the Heart's Desire'".
Unborn Tomorrow and Dead Yesterday. Why fret about them if Today be sweet", sang Omar Khayyam. But what of the present? What is today? It is the product of all our yesterdays, the yesterdays we made, and of our tomorrows, the tomorrows we so fondly hope to fashion according to our wish, but which come just as they please–despite all "the best laid plans of mice and men".
