Concerning thine own affairs, if thou wouldst content
thyself with whatever might come to pass it would be praiseworthy. To engage in
some profession is highly commendable, for when occupied with work one is less
likely to dwell on the unpleasant aspects of life. God willing thou mayest
experience joy and radiance, gladness and exultation in any city or land where
thou mayest happen to sojourn.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Tablets of Baha’u’llah revealed
after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
