Monday in the Second Week of Lent

Suzy and I saw Jersey Boys yesterday. It was lots of fun and the music was joyous. I had been slightly down coming back from the beach and worrying over obstacles. The music reminded me of the old saying that we cannot play the chords of “success” upon an instrument relaxed by disappointment and discouragement.

Only through happiness will be successful. There is no force so healing as the thrill of joy and gladness. There is no stimulant that is more thorough in its action. It’s a natural tonic, and our entire system responds to its exhilarating vibrations.

PS: Several have asked about how do I distinquish or define Fate v. Destiny. We’ll will discuss tomorrow. W.

  1. Dear Webb,

    I absolutely loved this entry! Thank you!! We have come to believe that one attracts what one puts out into the “universe.” Disharmony attracts disharmony, and, as you point out, joy and gladness attracts more or the same!
