HAPPINESS THAT COMES WITH GIVING Thomas Merton once observed that: "Love can be kept only by being given away." This seemingly paradoxical statement can begin to be understood when one realizes that the satisfaction that comes from indulging ourselves is only momentary. Self-indulgence never paves the way for true happiness because it narrows and deadens the spirit. For happiness to be true and longlasting, love has to be given unselfishly. Only then can one come to realize that love increases in the heart in proportion to the extent to which it is shared. Thus, the more of it that is given to others, the more likely it is that love will fill the heart. The potential that love has to bring happiness is limitless. No matter how well you live your life and take care of your health, age affects us all, and when it does, it helps to have professionals who care and are good at what they do, by your side At the MOSER FUNERAL HOME, you'll find our staff willing and able to help you, whether it is in offering compassion or arranging the details.

"To love is to place our happiness in the happiness of another."
