.. every moment of our life has a purpose, that every action of ours, no matter how dull or routine or trivial it may seem in itself, has a dignity and a worth beyond human understanding.. For it means that no moment can be wasted, no opportunity missed, since each has a purpose in man’s life, each has a purpose in God’s plan. Think of your day, today or yesterday. Think of the work you did, the people you met, moment by moment. What did it mean to you- and might it have meant for God? Is the question too simple to answer, or are we just afraid to ask it for fear of the answer we must give? .Walter J. Ciszek
About This Quote
The “Pursuit of Happiness” is a phrase that was coined by the philosopher John Stuart Mill. This phrase means that each person should always seek to improve their happiness even if it means working at a job that they do not like. They should remind themselves that the pursuit of happiness is an ongoing process, not one that will be achieved at some point in the future.
