Day Fourteen
A Program for Happiness
To live content with small means;
To seek elegance rather than luxury,
and refinement rather than fashion;
To be worthy, not respectable;
and wealthy, not rich;
To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly;
To listen to the stars and the birds,
to babes and sages with an open heart;
To bear all cheerfully and bravely,
await occasions, hurry never;
In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious
grow up through the common.
-William Henry Chandler

Throughout our travels here in South Africa, we have had the pleasure to give friendship bracelets to men, woman, and children we meet along the way. These brightly colored handmade works of art are a symbol of our love and friendship to the recipients. We are grateful to the many individuals, classes and groups who so generously made and donated the bracelets.
