Miranda July - The Shared Patio

my sister just told me to read this quote. 

"Do you have doubts about life? Are you unsure if it is worth the trouble? Look at the sky: that is for you. Look at each person's face as you pass on the street: those faces are for you. And the street itself, and the ground: all these things are you for. They are as much for you as they are for other people. Remember this when you wake up in the morning and think you have nothing. Stand up and face the east. Now praise the sky and praise the light within each person under the sky. It's ok to be unsure. But praise, praise, praise."

This is from a book called No one belongs here more than you. by Miranda July that is full of short stories. This story is titled "The Shared Patio."
