When evening comes it is good to review your day and ask yourself: "Have I been kind and thoughtful, or thoughtless? Have I kept an even temper, or have I lost my temper when things went wrong? Have I been pleasant, or grouchy? Have I done something creative and worthwhile, or have I wasted the day with petty things? Have I enlarged my mental horizon and expanded my personality?"

Thoughts by the late Rev. Paul Osumi are selected weekly by his family.
