Don't look for the flaws
as you go through life;
And even when you find them,
It is wise and kind to be somewhat blind
And look for the virtue behind them;
For the cloudiest night
has a hint of light
Somewhere in its shadows hiding;
It's better by far to hunt for a star
Than the spots on the sun abiding.
The current of life runs ever away
To the bosom of God's great ocean.
Don't set your force
'gainst the river's course
And think to alter its motion.
Don't waste a curse on the universe,
Remember, it lived before you.
Don't butt at the storm
with your puny form,
But bend and let it go o'er you.
This world will never adjust itself
To suit your whims to the letter;
Some things must go wrong
your whole life long,
And the sooner you know it the better.
It is folly to fight with the Infinite,
And go under at last in the wrestle.
The wiser man shapes into God's plan
As the water shapes into a vessel.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
OVER the shoulders and
slopes of the dune I saw the white daisies go
down to the sea, A host in the sunshine, an
army in June, The people God sends us to set
our hearts free.
The bobolinks rallied
them up from the dell, The orioles whistled
them out of the wood; And all of their
singing was, "Earth, it is well!" And all of
their dancing was, "Life, thou art
good!"
