Two thoughts clashed in my brain

Message OfGeer
GOOD MORNING
(Ry DR.. William {. Barton)

Few finer things are true of human
life than the habit of greeting the
new day with hope. The habit of say
ing Good morning" may come to be a
mere form, but even so it is a good
form. 1t has it's root in a fine spirit
of optimism. 1t welcomes the new
dav with a smile of hope.
It is good for every man that he
cultivate within himself the habit of
thinking and speaking as though he
had faith in the new day. Yesterday
may have been hard; but yesterday is
as certainly past as the year 1892.
Today is here, and it's character is not
yet determined; it's qualities will be
in some respects made for us; there
will be sunshine or shower according
to the operation of laws which we
can in no wise control. But all of
these things lie outside that sphere in
life which determines the real char
acter of the day.
Do not, l beg of you, insult the
morning by talking of your backache.
There are other and far more import
ant things to talk about. Do not con-
tarninate a day as yet unsmirched by
complaint that you did not rest well
last night and that in consequence you
have a headache. Your head will ache
the harder every time you tell about
it, every time you think how hard it
is aching Do not blaspheme by
snarling over your coffee about the
price of coal or the argument which
you had yesterday with a man who
proved himself less than a gentleman;
treat the new morning as a gentleman
should.
You will meet today 10 men or wo-
men. perhaps 20, perhaps a hundred
Every one of them will have his or
her day frightened or darkened by the
tone and manner of your greeting
You can put a little more spring into
the step and little more joy into the
heart of every one of them by a
cheerful tone and happy, confident
salutation.
If you read this lesson, not in the
morning, but in the afternoon, then
use it for so much of the day as is
left, and rise tomorrow with cheer
full good morning.
Yesterday was a disappointment;
am sorry, but this is today. The earth
has turned over. a new leaf since yes
terday. and is facing the sun. Face
your duty with courage and good
cheer.
Good morningi
