no evil forces in the world.

One lighted candle can make millions of candles lighted
without losing it's light.

Losing, in a curious way, is winning.

Are you feeling stressed and upset?
If so, you are worrying about tomorrow.
Events that have already occurred may cause you regret,

Those are worries about tomorrow.

of what could be a great life.
If you live in fear of losing your job,

house, car, and such.
If you live in fear of losing your stuff and money,
it is clear that they own you.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

"The Only Thing We Have to Fear Is Fear Itself."
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

brings peace for today,
and creates a vision for tomorrow.
