Reflection
To be glad of life because it gives you a chance to love, to work, to play and to look up at the stars. To despise nothing in the world except what is false and mean. To fear nothing except what is cowardly. To be guided by what you admire and love, rather than by what you hate. To envy nothing that is your neighbour’s except his kindness of heart and gentleness of manor. To think seldom of your enemies, often of your friends and every day of Christ and to spend as much time as you can with body and spirit, in God’s out-of-doors. These are little signposts on the footpath of peace.
