The best philosophy that any human being can learn to use is the Sunshine Philosophy—the habit of the enjoyment of sunshine now. Because there is no such thing as tomorrow. If one is ever to be happy and serene in soul he miust be happy now. This day must be the best day or there will be no best day, ee €i6 There is a deep meaning in that old scripture, “As a man thinketh in his heart so is he.” A man is what he thinks he is. Mind is dominant. A man becomes what he believes himself to be, How? To illustrate: . Darwin tells us that at first the eagle could not fly, But it wanted to fly and it tried to fly. It kept on wanting and trying to fly. Every desire and every attempt to fly added, as it were, feathers to its pinions. By and by, by desiring and trying, it soared into the sky. Just so is the human mind. Through desire and use it developes new powers, new use of faculties. oe ee To illustrate the power of mind: You get up in the morning thinking—Plato says thinking ig the soul talking to itseli—"I will be serene today. I will allow nothing that is trivial to disturb my composure.” You keep saying that to yourself and you keep trying to carry it out. Lo, you are happy! Or if not the first day then you keep desiring and trying until peace and happiness does come to you, ————"Hoisting oneself over the fence by his boot straps! Impossible.” No, it is not impossible. It is in ac- cord with the inherent laws of your mind. The way to find ir out is to try it. The way to prove it is to experiment. . . * *¢ You say there is a very great difference in temperaments, Certainly. Some persons are born with sunny dispositions, But— That simply proves your greater need. Those who fadiate good humor and geniality do not need to cultivate the happy habit so much as you do who are not of this nature. 7 * eS. 2 Glad-faced people are God's kind of people. They reflect His view—the bright side of things. If you go to your work as if it were but drudgery to get done you are mo more than aslave. If you see nothing but the seamy side of things you need to get a wider horizon. To the smiling soul all is good. “eee The sunshine habit helps to tide over the little things that annoy. It is the little things that mar man’s happiness and send thenr to the sanitariums. Nervousness—the national disease—is largely caused by fret over the trivial. ae. ale Aiter all, most of our troubles are imaginary. Many of us are like the old woman who always felt bad when she felt good for fear she might feel bad. It is easy to make the day hateful by fretfulness of spirit and anxiety—overstrain and fear Sf things that may never happen. The happy habit—the result of deliberate cultivation of the sunshine philosophy—will get you up out of the low lands of wretchedness and pessimism into the highlands of hopefuliess. There is no doubt about that. . . * . Call it the New Thought—it is as old as mind—or what not, it is possible to make yourself what you want to be In view of this power over yourself is it not little less than criminal to neglect the use of it? What right have you to poison your life by morbid, fear. fal imaginings? What right have you to be peevish and dis- agreeable without adequate cause? Say, what right have you when you are able to be othetwise? . * * * The philosopher in Lovey Mary understands the phil- osophy of the sunny habit: “Don't take it out in wishin’. If you want to be cheerful jes set your mind on it and do it. Can't one of us help what ‘we start out in life with, but we kin help what we end up with, © * * But it ain't just sayin’ nice things when you're feelin’ good. The way to get cheerful is to smile when you feel bad.” That is to say, it isn’t a matter of feeling but of thinking. You can think yourself cheerful or you can think yourself morose. It is all in wanting to be and trying to be. **e* Therefore, hold up your chin! The matter of happiness ie matter of thought and desire. And you are here to choose which you will—choose be- tween peevishness and pettiness and paresis and paralysis, on the one hand, or the primrose paths where you may pick flowers by the way. Get the happy habit. For it is a habit. What get in the habit of thinking. What we are accustomed to do we get in the habit of doing That is the law of mind . +e «6 we are accustomed to think we Get the habit of happiness. others. without sending its rays to all and always, the sunny life is the influential life!
