Description
Excerpt from Life and the Way Through
Which is the more important - to know the end of life or the way through At the first glance one might suppose that it was all important to be acquainted with the end or goal of life. How can we choose our path over the mountains, as we forgather at the dawn on the village green, unless the night before we have settled on our destination? To a young man standing on life''s threshold it is natural enough to say What are you going to be? What is your objective? What are you aiming at? Make everything converge towards that object. Count every moment lost that does not help you towards it. Was not such a thought in the mind of the Apostles when they said to the Master: Lord, we know not whither Thou goest, and how can we know the way?
But here is the difficulty. Many of us have not the inkling of an idea as to the end to which to direct our steps. Some happy souls.
