Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it well and serenely, and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense.. — Ralph Emerson Waldo

May we be happy

May we be free from danger
May we live with ease

A reporter once asked the Dalai Lama whether he held anger towards China. He replied ‘They have taken everything from us, should I let them take my mind as well?’

I try not to let current toxic events ruin my day. Thinking of this grounding quote sometimes helps.
