Golden Keys to a Lifetime of Living Venice J. Bloodworth

Words of praise are found in the papers belonging to Dr. Bloodworth, for the widely acknowledged importance of balance as being essential to successful living. In a few brief lines, she has set forth an explicit explanation of the relationship between the four drives: work, play, love, and worship, along with her views concerning the desirability of recognizing the value, and giving expression to each. "Right thinking is the most important thing in our lives. Most of us merely reflect the opinions of others. Some fear to express an opinion of their own, because they fear ridicule. Shake off the old ideas, fears, beliefs, and prejudices. Dare to have a few ideas of your own. Mind is the master weaver of your destiny. Stand porter at the door of your mind, and let no thoughts enter except those you want to live with." -Venice J. Bloodworth
