Happiness Radiating

A young Sister I had lived with for many years possessed an infectious laugh and a radiant smile. One day when we were shopping, the clerk paid her the loveliest compliment I have ever heard.

Should you find something on your dinner plate that doesn’t appeal to you, don’t complain. There are people who don’t have anything on their plate.

Should you find yourself stuck in traffic, don’t despair. There are people in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege.

Should you despair over a relationship gone bad, think of the person who has never known what it’s like to love and be loved in return.

Should you grieve the passing of another weekend, think of the woman in dire straits, working twelve hours a day, seven days a week to feed her children.

Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance, think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take that walk.
