Be not a slave to your moods, but their master. But if you are so angry, so depressed and so sore that your spirit cannot find deliverance and peace, even in prayer, then go quickly and give some pleasure to someone lowly or sorrowful, or to a guilty or innocent sufferer! Sacrifice yourself, your talent, your time, your rest to another, to one who has to bear a heavier load than you -- and your unhappy mood will dissolve into a blessed, contented submission to God. Abdul Baha (Pilgrim note dated 5 August 1910 in Sonne der Wahrheit, a German Bahá’í journal. It’s published in: Volume 13, December 1933, Issue no. 10, p. 103.)
