When I went to California last summer to visit my parents, I came across an old book. The title intrigued me - How to Stop Worrying and Start Living By Dale Carnegie. Wow I thought , that sounds a modern title for the 1930's. I didn't know at the time it is considered a classic work. It is an amazing book and once again reminds me that there are not raelly any original thoughts.
I dip in and out of this book regularly, it helps me relax.
"You and I are standing at the meeting place of two eternities: the vast past that has endured forever, and the future that is plunging on to the last syllable of recorded time. We can't possibly live in either of those eternities- not even for one split second. But , by trying to do so, we can wreck both our bodies and our minds. So let's be content to live the only time we can possibly live: from now until bedtime." Anyone can carry their burden, however hard, until night fall," wrote Robert Louis Stevenson. " Anyone can do his work, however hard, for one day. Anyone can live sweetly, patiently, lovingly, purely, till the sun goes down. And this is all that life really means."
