What are things worth "unwearied diligence"?

Ah, you know, the things that make the heart happy.  I wonder often how many really know what that really feels like or some may even wonder how the heart can be happy.  I wonder if many even have time to feel such things because of the busyness of life. We have moments - but moments are fleeting and sometimes far between.  They should be noticed and felt daily, and even hourly, and in the heart always.

That happy heart is always open but we are the ones who close it.  Is the heart closed because the mind is closed?  Often that answer is "yes".  We go to school to learn and our minds are open and our hearts are happy as we become excited about new things.  Yet, when others talk about things we do not agree with or think impossible, up go the mind closed signs and the heart doesn't even get an opportunity to be felt.  We've closed it.  How wrong I've been for doing such things and how much I've  missed.






And what is "unwearied diligence"?

Not tired or jaded:FRESH are the words used in Merriam-Webster's dictionary. Not becoming tired were used in other definitions.

When I believe something is right or true, I'm on that bandwagon with my might, mind, and strength. And, yes, I may run a little too fast or too long and physically tire; but the joy of what I believe still burns within and brings joy and I'll be loyal and always striving until the end.

To me, that is "unwearied diligence".
