LIVE AND FNJOY LIFE
If you have a home and are out
of debt, don't fret and worry
yourself and your good wife into
the grave for the sake of making
money. You have but one life to
live and it is brief at best. Take
a little pleasure and comfort as
you go day by day, and try to do
a little good to others.
A morbid, insatiate desire to
possess the earth, to grab every
thing in sight, is at the found
ation of more misery than almost
any one thing, Wealth alone will
never keep your memory green
after you are gone; a good life
and kind actions will.
