Are you in the moment?

3rd and 4th grade Girls Basketball team prays before each game, with the following poem:

I may never see tomorrow, there is no written guarantee,
And things that happened yesterday, belong to history.
I cannot predict the future, I cannot change the past,
I have just the present moment, I must treat it as my last.

I must use this moment wisely, for it will soon pass away,
And be lost to me forever, as part of yesterday.
I must exercise compassion, help the fallen to their feet,
Be a friend unto the friendless, make an empty life complete.

The unkind things I do today, may never be undone,
And friendships that I fail to win, may never more be won.
I may not have another chance on bended knee to pray,
And thank God with humble heart, for giving me this day.
