Quote by Helen Keller

When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.

When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often

Summary

This quote suggests that when we experience a setback or loss, there is always an opportunity for happiness or success waiting for us. However, people tend to dwell on their disappointments and fail to see the new possibilities that arise. It serves as a reminder to shift our focus away from what we have lost and instead be open and receptive to the new opportunities that come our way. By doing so, we can discover a path to happiness and fulfillment that may have otherwise gone unnoticed.

The great commitment is so much easier than the ordinary, everyday one -- and can all too easily shut our hearts to the latter. A willingness to make the ultimate sacrifice can be associated with, and even produce, a great hardness of heart. You thought you were indifferent to praise for achievements which you would not yourself have counted to your credit, or that, if you should be tempted to feel flattered, you would always remember that the praise far exceeded what the events justified. You thought yourself indifferent -- until you felt your jealousy flare up at his naive attempts to make himself important, and your self-conceit stood exposed. Concerning the hardness of the heart -- and its littleness -- let me read with open eyes the book my days are writing, and learn.
