"Reforming Oneself" by Max Ehrmann

It has been raining again. I have been indoors, meditating on the shortcomings of life.

I do believe it has stopped raining.
I can go out now. I'll go and shoot on the archery range.
I'll not bother to reform myself today. Perhaps tomorrow - if it is raining, and I must stay indoors, and meditate on the shortcomings of life.
