Joan D. Chittister Quotes About Perspective

• El secreto de la vida es dejar que cada segmento de ella produzca su propio rendimiento a su propio ritmo. Cada periodo tiene algo nuevo que enseñarnos.

• Humor and laughter are not necessarily the same thing. Humor permits us to see into life from a fresh and gracious perspective. We learn to take ourselves more lightly in the presence of good humor. Humor gives us the strength to bear what cannot be changed, and the sight to see the human under the pompous.
