Book Description

Excerpt from The Lighted Pathway, Vol. 14: January, 1943 Every one loves the thought of a new year and the chance to resolve anew; to make a new start; a new, clear record ahead; a pure, clean leaf upon which to write the daily page for the year, and every one - most - resolves, and starts to carry out the resolution to keep it clear - his book of life - the whole year through. But he fails, perhaps in some little things, some small experience or effort, and they give up trying to fulfill their high resolve, while many forget ever resolving. We don't like to talk about broken things, New Year's resolutions, broken dolls - or hearts. It only brings back the hurt and the sorrow, and the shame, sometimes, and we don't say anything about them, do we? But, don't you think it would be better if we would admit our failures - to ourselves, at least - and resolve anew to try to remedy them, at once, and, if it entails some one else, confess our fault, and ask forgiveness and try to made amends? I know often a broken thing is never the same, however well mended, yet it is so much better mended than not, and who does not love to mend?
