A Hint On Vacation investing
i knew a very
weli meaning man some years
who biuk part of bis vacation
one summer to attend a
tion. When he returned to
home community he visited
group to explain to them “his
w o n d e r f u 1 experiences.”
theme was: “the meals they
ed while he was in
at the convention. He could re¬
late just what was served for
breakfast, dinner or supper in the
order that they came for each day
• of the convention.
'ir~:r -
~ 1 admit that there have been
"conventions that had little more
-to offer besides food. Granted
"that this was one of those cases,
1 am convinced that meals are not
the most important things to ex¬
pect at a convention.
I have a suspicion that the
“feast” attitude toward vacation
is duplicated among our people in
all societies today. We
score the things that we get or
take in during this season. I have
known people to be so tired when
they came from their vacation that
they were forced to rest for some
time.
Most of us today have so many
responsibilities, necessary or un¬
necessary, until they are very
much divided. Not only is the
person divided but we tend to slip
away from our associations and
other persons. We are so busy
doing the routine until we become
mere human machines, rather than
persons Who have inner will and
desires of their own. Our past
experiences have given to us valu¬
ables which are driven into our
subconscious minds by our full
time loyalties to immediate de¬
mands. We need time to bring
them to our conscious minds and
..recreate it.
Those of us who are fortunate
enough to have time off for vaca¬
tion have a wonderful opportunity
to compiune with ourselves and
bring ourselves together. T 0 .
gether means strength to do a ■
tetter '„.J? job with less stress and
strain."
Thsix; are th,ose of us who have
passed over values in our group not!
relationship. ______„ Many of — us —__ do r _
understand our associates and 1
friends well enough to bring about
the best values by our social in¬
teraction. We have been too busy
to ubierve their deeper qualities
and opportunities they offer that
we may supplement and bring|
about ’greater services to society. I
Vacation is a grand opportunity j j
to bring together those qualities
of life which are no less valuable *
but 1 1 aye been unconsciously neg-
lecteduby routine and unite them
with those we have. We will
come hack to our job rested with
much more to offer.
