Frances Hodgson Burnett


“If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden.”

If you were busy being kind,
Before you knew it, you would find
You’d soon forget to think ‘twas true
That someone was unkind to you.

If you were busy being glad
And cheering people who were sad,
Although your heart might ache a bit
You’d soon forget to notice it.

If you were busy being true
To what you know you ought to do,
You’d be so busy you’d forget
The blunders of the folks you’ve met.
-- Anon.

J.R. Miller


The Problem of Life
There are so many possibilities in life, in attainment and achievement, and so many opportunities of doing good, that it is a glorious thing to live. Surely, then, we ought to make the most of our life.
The ideal life is one of joy. The face ought to be shining--shining even in darkness. People say this is a sad world, yes, for those who have eyes only for shadows. He who has songs in his heart hears songs wherever he goes.
-- Dr. J. R. Miller

Kenzie Howells


There are always angels lining our path; sometimes they are just harder to see.
