“It is better to travel hopefully
than to arrive/’ said Stevenson.
*Life is a porsuit, not an occupa
tion. It is something to do, not
something to learn. When bappi-,
ness becomes ah accomplished fact’
it ceases to exist, So long ffs it is
a pursuit it lives.
Doctors assure us there is noth
ing more fatal to the health of an
active man or woman than to re
tire from active life at loo early
an ago.
The same law holds good as to
happiness. To think that at least
you have achieved the goal is to
loso it. It is like the bluo bird in
Masterlink’g story, that turns
black when, it is housed and caged
Think ot the days of greatest en
joyment, in your .OAvn life. Were
they not the days wliep you were
working and striving for a goal?
Wheu you and your partner faced
Ihe woi'id with a modest salary
and a gijin?
/ When yoh’had a lii tie apartmont
of a few,rooms, and furnished them
one room at a time? When you paid
off the mortgage, or got the big
raise, or laupeijed but into bu'si-
ness'M’y.ourself? ' ‘ *
Those were.the happy days,
Happy, not because, j f o.u had ac-
complished sOmething, but because
you were starting something. And
you have hover boon as contented
since unless you have continued
.the wise process of pursuing hap’
piness,. alwayis sotting out hope
fully for a new objective as sooii as
