ÒMaterial blessings always come and are a great joy at the time they are received. In due time they grow old and tattered and are discarded. They are the source of temporary happiness, but temporary only.

True and lasting happiness is in our hearts. It is a peace of mind in the knowledge that we are doing GodÕs will and living the good life. Being happy is important to good health.

Happiness can only be attained by a practice of good thoughts toward all mankind; good wishes for everyone and a true generosity with all our worldly possessions; for truly it is more blessed to give than to receive.Ó
