The real things haven't changed. It is still best to be honest and truthful; to make the most of what we have; to be happy with simple pleasures; and have courage when things go wrong.

Courage and kindness, loyalty, truth, and helpfulness are always the same and always needed.

These happy golden years are passing by, these happy golden years.

There is nothing wrong with God's plan that man should earn his bread by the sweat of his brow.

Suffering passes, while love is eternal. That's a gift that you have received from God. Don't waste it.

The stream of passing years is like a river with people being carried along in the current. Some are swept along, protesting, fighting all the way, trying to swim back up the stream, longing for the shores that they have passed, clutching at anything to retard their progress, frightened by the onward rush of the strong current and in danger of being overwhelmed by the waters. Others go with the current freely, trusting themselves to the buoyancy of the water.
