"To be happy at home
is the ultimate result of all ambition."
Start Quote
The wisdom contained in this one sentence
is worth meditating on for the rest of our lives...
Why are you working so hard?
To be happy at home.
But you're never at home
- in mind, body, or spirit -
because you're always working.
So why are you working so hard?
To be happy at home...
Life IS a paradox,
but we don't have to make it any harder than it is already...
Hold this thought:
Engrave this truth on your consciousness.
Lay the track deeply, so that even when you're on your
own version of automatic pilot, you'll be homeward bound.
Write it on the palm of your hand...
mutter it under your breath...
What is the [the point of all of this?]
You know.
Inscribe it on your heart.
Needlepoint it on a pillow.
Say it out loud when you get up and just before retiring...
Doing so will help remind you that the
greatest adventure of our lives is
End Quote
Amen.
Why do we do it all?
If you keep the reason on your mind all the time,
make every decision based on that reason,
then you will find that you have made
your home a heaven on earth.
Your home and your family
are the most important things in the world.
Don't lose them because you're distracted
by what isn't important,
or your ambition isn't sending you in their direction.
