more at college, she wrote me a
letter one night after being out in a
boat with some young chap and she
said her idea of happiness was one
of drifting dreamily in canoe with
the current. Happiness is not OBJ
tained by drifting in a canoe with
the current, but by pulling at the
oars. The more one throws his soul
into his work, the more will be his
joys.
"My fourth rule for gaining hap
ipiness is: If you want to be happy
you must form the habit of being
kind to those who touch your life
each day. The happiest person is
the one who makes others happy
and is doing something for other
people. The more happiness you
give away, the happier you will be.
Christ was the happiest man in the
world and the reason is that he made
others happy. The Rotary motto is
making business men as we'll as
others happy. The motto is: He
profits most who serves best. Real
wealth is the things that stick to
you when you leave the world as
good works and character, not the
largest bank account. If you have
the love of Christ, you will be out
helping other people and making the
world better.
81 consider my fifth rule which is,
You must adopt and keep up a
simple childlike confidence in Cod,
of much Importance in the quest for
happiness. If you do what God
wants you do as your father, you
will find out that happiness is COM
ing to you from every direction.
used to think of God as a huge stern
being who was always watching me
with a piercing eye to see whether
[ did anything wrong. A number
Of years ago came to think of
God in a different way, as a father
and child. I have cultivated a
childlike confidence in him and
can assure you it has added a great
deal to my life.
eff you will follow these five
simple rules for three months, you
will find happiness too."
