COMPASSION

Affirmation of life is the spiritual act by which man ceases to live thoughtlessly and begins to devote himself to his life
with reverence in order to give it true value.
— Albert Schweitzer

Effect of Thought on Circumstances

  • The world is your kaleidoscope, and the varying combinations of colours, which at every succeeding moment it presents to you are the exquisitely adjusted pictures of your ever-moving thoughts.
    So you will be, what you "will" to be.
    Let failure find its false content,
    In that poor word "environment,"
    But spirit scorns it and is free.
  • The human will, that force unseen,
    The offspring of a deathless soul,
    Can work away at any goal,
    Though walls of granite intervene.
  • Be not impatient and delay,
    But wait, as one who understands.
    When spirit rises and commands,
    The gods are ready to obey.
