Good Advice

I'm transcribing some letters from a mother to her son, who is serving a mission in South Africa in 1931. She gave him some fabulous advice, that I love.

"take the d, i, e out of depression...press-on. And so I say to you, let depressed feelings die and press-on."

What a wonderful way to think about things. This woman was living in THE depression. If any one had a right to feel depressed, it was she.

So, my dear friends, let all those sad feelings die, and let us all Press On!
