Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 37, Number 7, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 27 January 1905 — The Joy of Life. [ARTICLE]

The Joy of Life.

The true joy of life is the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one, the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap, the being a force of nature Instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances, complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. Bernard Shaw.
