A Quote of Inspiration and Direction

This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose
recognized by your self as a mighty one. The being
a force of nature instead of a feverish little clod of ailments
and grievances, complaining the world will not devote itself
to making you happy.

I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community,
and as long as I live, it is my privilege, my PRIVILEGE to do
for it what I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die,
for the harder I work, the more I live.

I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me.
It is a sort of splendid torch which I’ve got to hold up for
the moment. I want to make it burn as brightly as
possible before handing it on to future generations.
~~George Bernard Shaw
