THINGS THAT MATTER
RAIN
It rains; invisible hands have spread out a- white scarf across the .sky; drops of water scintillate like clouds of arrows; a ladder of light, resting on the sea, loses its summit in the glory lighting up the zenith. When all is over, Nature is refreshed; the rocks have recovered their vigorous tones; every leaf shines with an intense green; the sea itself seems newdyed, and creamy Hakes float soft as down upon the azure.
No one is so insignificant as to be sure his example can do no hurt. Lord Clarendon.
When you give to others give cheerfully. There is no blessing from an unwilling offering.
The law of Nature is, Do the tiling and you shall have.; the power; but they who do not the thing have not the power. R. W. Emerson.
