It is the music of the soul.
Take time to think.

Take time to play.
It is the source of perpetual youth.
Take time to read.
It is the fountain of wisdom.
Take time to pray.
It is the greatest power on Earth.
Take time to love and be loved.
It is a God-given privilege.
Take time to be friendly.
It is the road to happiness.
Take time to give.
It is too short a day to be selfish.
Take time to work.
It is the price of success.

a heightened sense of community.

Every compassionate act makes large the world.

thus freeing your mind to think clearly toward the solution
that is certain to come. Never take yourself too seriously.
