To Be Useful

"It is the people who can do nothing who find nothing to do, and the secret of happiness in this world is not only to be useful, but to be forever elevating one's uses." - Sarah Orne Jewett, writer

I pray every day to be of maximum service to God and to everyone I come in contact with on a daily basis. I know that I am always finding things to do these days and I know that I've never been happier. So, I guess I should continue to do my best to elevate my uses. It seems to be working well so far.

I must admit that I disagree with the first part of this quote; I know that everyone can do something. I believe that it's my job to help my friends, family, and acquaintances find out just how much they can do. I love to encourage people to strive for magnificence. Today I know that I have lots more to learn in order to continue to elevate my uses. May we all grow together and elevate each other.
