I love this saying by Lao Tzu, the Ancient Chinese Philosopher. It is both timeless and timely. Peace and Blessings!

“If you look to others for fulfillment

you will never truly be fulfilled.


If your happiness depends on money,


you will never be happy with yourself.


Be content with what you have:


rejoice in the way things are.


When you realize there is nothing lacking,


the whole world belongs to you.”


~Lao Tzu

Hi! My name is Karen. This may be an inconvenience but please understand that the LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart, financial need; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. I am trying to find a resume person who can help us. I am a 36 year old self-supporting single mom and sole financial support of my two kids age 12 and 9. I need help to pay my gas, water and electric bill.I lost my job in August and still i am out of work. My smaller child is sick with asthma. And she will get sicker as it gets colder. I do not know what to do. Water bill was $55, Gas $70 and now my electricity bill is around $31, (we are billed 6 times a year) bill (water, gas and electricity) averages $156. I can’t understand how gas, electricity and water prices are going up so quickly and yet the official inflation rate doesn’t reflect it. I live in a small town without a lot of programs.
Please help us to be able to stay in this house, so we can continue having a normal life again.
If you can not help in cash, i can provide you my billing account number to payoff. i will appreciate to receive the heads up advice from you.
Please buy me a cup of coffee to quench my thirsty With PayPal you can send money using your checking account or credit card to neverdepartingfromthemosthigh@yahoo.com. Once you have a PayPal account set up, you can receive money or send someone else money via e-mail. It’s simple, quick, and reliable!
My primary email address neverdepartingfromthemosthigh AT yahoo DOT com in paypal is an old email address that i always have access to, although it is the same email address I use to sign into my yahoo and paypal account with?
