Living worthwhile

I know that this day will never come again.  Therefore, I will make it the best day in which I have ever lived.  I know that happiness is a thing within and that it is always in the world and very near to me.  I know I have but to search for it and that as soon as I begin to hunt it out I may have it.  Also I know that as soon as I get happiness and begin to give it away it comes back doubled and more; to me I know this.

I know that work is a stimulus and that it keeps the world alive and moving.  I know that the people who work with love in their hearts and interest in their brains are the real benefactors of mankind.  I know that I can be a doer and benefactor.  I know that life is exactly as I make it.  I know that other people and other forces can influence my life and work only as I allow it.  I know that I am young if I live youth; I know that I am happy if I live happiness; I know that I am worth while if I attempt and accomplish worth-while things.
