Good morning.
"I use them and help counsel others as well."

Yes, that comes through in your posts. It's a good thing.

Thanks. Every step forward in the right direction is good, and engenders enthusiasm and encouragement to go more steps forward.

Being the wellwisher of others is another way of trying to live the Golden Rule. I fall short as do all fallen souls but God within everyone's heart will show us our shortcomings when we want to see them.

Just talked to a young friend today, who is struggling with a variety of problems, and encouraged her to realize that her own health - physical, mental and spiritual - is really in her own hands. Not that others can't help but she has to take the steps to want to improve, and then actually do the work. And learning to tolerate the unavoidable vicissitudes life offers is part of the secret of happiness.
