May the blessings of love be upon you
May its peace abide with you
May its essence illuminate your heart
Now and forever more...
~ from Sufi Blessing of Love and Peace
Work helps prevent one from getting old. My work is my life. I cannot think of one without the other. The one who works and is never bored is never old. A person is not old until regrets take the place of hopes and plans. Work and interest in worthwhile things are the best remedy for aging. ... With age your facility of expression and perception diminishes. I have almost nothing left but time. But if I can be of service, I would like to go on living.
