it will be too warm for me to live there if I take a notion some day to emigrate.

Have I made too large a demand upon your imagination, Sweetheart? You will never realize the mysteries of creation if you cannot imagine a lot. Imagination is the creative faculty and the only faculty that can glimpse the mysteries of life.

Man is the most powerful concentrator of energy in this world. He does not have to learn to concentrate. He is the result of ages of concentration of energy. His growth is the result of greater concentration. He couldn't be anything else than a concentrator if he tried, and he couldn't quit concentrating to save his life. Or, rather, as soon as he quits concentrating he loses his life.

It is natural for man to concentrate his mind it is unnatural for his mind to "wander." This is proved by the fact that a little child evidences perfect concentration, while old people are most afflicted with a wandering mind.

Did you ever notice how absorbed a child is in whatever interests it? "This one thing I do," is its attitude of mind. That is concentration.

The first seeds of a wandering mind are sown in the child by compelling it to work against its will. A parent or teacher who has the knack of rousing interest in a child is working with the law of its being. The child will concentrate knowledge readily because its attention is held steadily in one direction. Whereas the child who works without interest, attention, concentration, is dividing its interest between its task and something it wants to do. In time this habit becomes fixed, the mind wanders always, and finally nothing fully interests.
