7. How Much You Care

    People do not care how much you know
    until they know how much you care.

  8. Think of someone

    129 September 16, 2013

    Before you say an unkind word – Think of someone who can't speak. 

    Before you complain about the taste of your food – Think of someone who has nothing to eat. 

    Before you complain about your husband or wife – Think of someone who's crying out to GOD for a companion. 

    Before you complain about life – Think of someone who went too early to Heaven. 

    Before whining about the distance you drive – Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet. 

    And when you are tired and complain about your job – Think of the unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job…

    And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down – Put a Smile on your face and think: You're Alive and still around.

Most -- but not all -- of the Canon has already been published in English over the years. Although only a small fraction of these texts are available here at Access to Insight, this collection can nonetheless be a very good place to start.
