Something to
Think Ab0ut
BEWARE OF SHADOWS
By Ed. WALKER

ITO MAKE ones self happy, to
i keep on the sunlit trails, TO go
about the days duties with a light
heart and a willing hand, n must
keep constantly in the splendent, radi-
ant rays from the worlds above.
1t Is not easy to wear a smile when
troubles hover near, but by continued
effort in the right spirit, 1t can be
done.
Many of our annoying perplexities
are of our own making, consequently
they can be avoided by turning from
them when they first knock at the
door of our hearts for admission, and
shutting the door in their faces.
We are inclined to brood over some
fancied wrong until it becomes a
formidable ghostly thing that hannts
our life from day to day. We are
prone to forget that we are rational
beings possessed of spiritual powers
capable of turning night into day by
a grain or two of faith, which in our
moments of dependency we frequent
~ ONbIlObksg VI AuNl 01idt III HANSf -
a balm of our owl.
We art not willing TO accept the
sacred promises given to us by the
Master of Men, simply because we
prefer the shadows of doubt rather
than the glorious sunlight of endur-
Ing truth. so We continue TO stumble
and fall In the darkness of our crea-
ton and blame the Fates for our mis-
cradle plight.
Human vanity and an exalted idea
of our bleod-and-nesh proves are In
most cases responsible for the sor-
rows, tears and disappointments that
usually beset US.
We make pitiable Jobs of our work
but we %stubbornly refuse to change
our methods ven though they bring
us nothing but regret and pain.
And generally We rest fairly con
tent with our failures. for we keep
multiplying them and counting their
company when we know In our hearts
that we should pursue a contrary
course.
We wish to be assured of brighter
days. but In our blind eagerness to
find them, W deliberately turn our
backs upon the paths that take to
the hills and choose the rougher
roads that carry us down TO the dark
valleys.
If We would not waste our years
in Ignorance, we must lift our eyes
up to the light of Wisdom, place our
hands confidently in her always friend
ly palm and be content to be guided
by her kindly counsel and illuminat-
ing smile, for there is no other way
by which We can hope to overcome
impeding obstacles and reach the
heights.
