When You are Most Unhappy... A Quote

Believe, when you are most unhappy, that there is something for you to do in the world. So long as you can sweeten another's pain, life is not in vain.
Helen Keller

Another great post for over the computer... when you need a little reminding!!

It's Not What We See

It is not what we see and touch or that which others do for us which makes us happy; it is that which we think and feel and do, first for the other fellow and then for ourselves.
Helen Keller

And we complain about what we don't have!   What can each of do to make someone else happy today? I wonder how many people are thinking the same thing?

A Quote About Closing Doors

"When one door of happiness closes, another open; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us."

Helen Keller

I'm sad to say that this quote describes me, but I'm trying to check out those new doors. Having family living so far away was the door that closed for me, but I'm able to go home about 4 times a year. I didn't notice that little door of opportunity!
