He held that all annoyances, frustrations, disappointments, mishaps, discomforts, hardships, sorrows, pains, and even final disaster iteself, are simply God's way of teaching us lessons that we could never else learn. That circumstances do not matter, are nothing, but that the response of the spirit that meets them is everything; that there is no situation in human life, however apparently adverse, nor any human relationship, however apparently uncongenial, that cannot be made, if God be in the heart, into a thing of perfect joy; that, in order to attain this ultimate perfection, one must accept every experience and learn to love all persons... that the worth of life is is not to be measured by its results in achievement or success, but solely by the motives of the heart and the efforts of one's will.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7050</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A third Cato has dropped from the skies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50424]]></link><description><![CDATA[A third Cato has dropped from the skies.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50424</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45165]]></link><description><![CDATA[A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45165</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9955]]></link><description><![CDATA[Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth!
