Sunshine and Shadow

In life sunshine and shadow succeed
one another as quickly as in an April
day. If we turn our backs on our bless
ings and magnify our troubles we make
ourselves miserable; If we look to the
sunshine and leave the shadows behind
us we shall find that we have much TO
he thankful for, and in most cases that
the good things are real. while what
seem evil things are but blessings in dis
guise-are warnings, or trials, or difficult
ties, which make the value of victory.
