  1. In #recovery circles, and in other #service #based organizations, like the #United #States was supposed to be, it is understood that helping somebody else sometimes is the answer to your emotional trouble. Some will argue that it's merely because you forgot about your #trouble. That happens.

  2. A quotation from Herbert Hoover

    In the Middle Ages it was the fashion to wear hair shirts to remind one’s self of trouble and sin. Many years ago I concluded that a few hair shirts were part of the mental wardrobe of every man. The President differs only from other men in that he has a more extensive wardrobe.

    Herbert Hoover (1874-1964) American engineer, bureaucrat, US President (1929-33)
    Speech (1929-12-14), Gridiron Club, Willard Hotel, Washington, D.C.

  9. A quotation from Fuller, Thomas (1654):

    «
    One Month in the School of Affliction will teach thee more than the great Precepts of Aristotle in seven years; for thou canst never judge rightly of human Affairs, unless thou hast first felt the Blows, and found out the Deceits of Fortune.
