Life is what tire Make It.
One of the most prolific sources of open
complaint and secret discontent is the ap¬
parent inequality of the human lot in life.
In proof of this, we aTe pointed to the out¬
ward differences so palpable to all., Wealth
and poverty, health and sickness, educa¬
tion and ignorance, ability and feebleness,
success and failure, certainly prepent very
opposite appeatances; inevitable but that they are
either the fixed and lot of those
who now possess them, or that they are
themselves the true elements of life’s hap¬
piness or misery, are erroneous, though
very prevalent be ideas. The truth that
ought to impressed on etery mind, and
especially upon the young, both to prevent
repining, their and to animate the energies to
fullest capacity, is tfiat »* what
we mike it. Two men stand side by side,
gazing on the same scene in nature. To
one, who lias a bright and cheerful dis¬
position, it reveals only beauty nfld glad¬
ness , while to the other, gloomy and sad,
the Whole scene is spread dVCx* with a
leaden pall. It is our own state of mind
that creates for us, even Nature herself,
and paints the same scene in beauty or in
»]oom.
