“A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is
easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them; then work which one hopes may be of some use; then, rest, nature, books, music, love for one’s neighbor–such is my idea of happiness.” ~ Tolstoy ~
“We are not rich by what we possess but by what we can do without.”
~ Immanuel Kant ~
“He who is not contented with what he has, would not be contended with what he would like to have.” ~ Socrates ~
“The happiness which God designs for His higher creatures, is the happiness of being freely, voluntarily united to Him and to each other in an ecstasy of love and delight compared with which the most rapturous love between a man and a woman on this earth is mere milk and water.”
~ C. S. Lewis ~

My good friend on my way into this new week! Great collection!
I am happy to learn your mom is better and I am still including Jacque in my prayers. I enjoyed the verse from Philippians 4:12. Thank you for it.
It is so sad that a sense of restlessness is more often experienced than contentment. Even for us “older” folk who should know better.
So glad your Mom is improving!
You'll see that I've borrowed the Tolstoy quote for Facebook. It and several others are going straight into my journal! 🙂
This is one of my favorite subjects. I LOVE the Tolstoy quote. It fits what I've been pondering on lately. They are all really good!
