You are most welcome Karen Kay. I was so happy to have received that Satyagraha quote myself once upon a time.
I work in a psychiatric hospital. Some days are pretty emotionally rough. It can be hard on my own mental health. I use that quote to remind myself that I chose the right path, that I need to be a tool for my patients to use (not a bucket to hold their problems), that I need to turn to friends and say help! when I need to, and most especially, I need to keep my heart open and warm to my patients, and my friends, and to new people I meet along the path.
BTW - I think you may be closet Buddhist. ;-)
