THOUGHT FOR THE DAY.
We can't choose happiness either for ourselves or for another; wo can't tell where that will lie. We can only choose whether w& will indulge ourselves in the present moment, or whother we will renounce that for the sake of obeying the divino voice within us—for the sake of being true to all the motives that sanctify our lives. I know this belief is hard; it has slipnod away from me again and again; but 1 have felt that if I let it go for ever, I should have no light through the darkness of this life. —G. Eliot.
