Ella Wheeler Wilcox's

New Thought Common Sense

"Evolution is better than Revolution. New Thought Library's New Thought Archives encompass a full range of New Thought media from Abrahamic to Vedic reflecting the ongoing evolution of human thought. New Thought's unique inclusion of science, art and philosophy contrasts with 'old thought' Religion. Today's 'New Thought 3.0' teaches personal responsibility, self-development, human rights and compassionate action as essential spiritual paradigms." ~ Avalon de Rossett

course of events, seem worthy of emulation, and her ideas and opinions worthy of respect.

When such a woman sends into space her quiet, earnest assertions that those who are dear to her believe as she believes, and understand as she understands, she need use no arguments, no sermons, no educating methods, to bring about the desired result.

Sooner or later she will be given her heart's wish. But she who allows her creed to separate her from her family, who forgets to be the ideal wife, mother or daughter in trying to be the spiritual adept, only drives her family further away from the truth as she understands it, and delays her own best development by neglecting her nearest duties.

It is good wives and good mothers and good women in the daily walks of life that the world needs, not adepts or miracle workers.

"Be ye faithful in a few things, and ye shall be made rulers over many."

Great powers come to those who continually perform small obligations with an understanding of their importance in the building of the House Beautiful --- the human character.

 

 

 

I care not who were vicious back of me:

No shadow of their sins on me is shed.

My will is greater than heredity,

I am no worm to feed upon the dead.
