Came across this quote at work and found it very meaningful, especially for people who feel that everyone owes them a living. Some mid-week food for thought could do all of us some good.
" You cannot bring prosperity by discouraging thrift
You cannot help small men by tearing down big men
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong
You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer
You cannot help the poor man by destroying the rich
You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income
You cannot further brotherhood of men by inciting class hatred
You cannot build character and courage by taking away man's initiative and independence
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves"
May all of us start cultivating the abundance mentality and not wallow in self-pity. Hang on there, the weekend's beckoning!!
