the feeling of happiness dwells in the soul."

Thoughful Friday 169
“To
live content with small means.... To seek elegance rather than luxury,
and
refinement rather than fashion....
To be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy,
not rich....
To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly....
To
listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart....
To bear all
cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions,
hurry never....
In a word, to let
the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious,
grow up through the
common....
...........
this is to be my symphony.”
William Henry Channing
