Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of
darkness, and the word happy would lose its
meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It
is far better take things as they come along
with patience and equanimity.

It
is not God's will merely that we should be

Many people have the wrong idea of what
constitutes true happiness. It is not attained
through self-gratification, but through fidelity
to a worthy purpose.
