If a man can find greater happiness In repairing streets than in healing the sick, then he should repair streets. If he can be happier living a lawless, carefree life than by living a quietly peaceful existence, I suppose he should be lawless and carefree. The thing we have to remember, however, as we go through life, is that happiness is not nearly so simple as we might think; In reality it Is the result of a series of exceedingly complex situations and experiences. Perhaps we are happier today repairing streets than we would be grinding over heavy volumes of medical science, but tomorrow we might have been far happier if we had only made the required sacrifices today. The thrill that a lawless, carefree life brings today might produce such personal or social results as to end abruptly in misery for both ourselves and society. In that case the quantity of happiness In our life might be negligible Indeed. With happiness as our goal, we should prepare ourselves in some measure to obtain It In its purest form and in as great a quantity as possible. In its purest form, happiness must be spiritual, for the soul is far more capable of being supremely happy than the body. The quantity of happiness we may expect from life Is entirely dependent upon how carefully we have cultivated the soul. Pew people are supremely happy, for few people have great souls; but this we should all remember : no one will prevent us from drinking deeply from a full cup In life excepting ourselves. These remarks sound suspiciously like a sermon, I know; but if I were to speak less sincerely, I would be trifling with your good will. God bless you, and may your lives be long and happy ones. 2
