OF INTEREST IN THE
SOCIAL REALM
LIFE’S COMMON THINGS
The things of every day are all so sweet —
The morning meadows wet with due;
The dance of daisies in the noon; the
blue
, Of far-off hills where twilight shadows
lie;
The night, with all its tender mystery
of sound
- And silence, and God’s starry sky!
Oh, life—the whole of life—is far too
fleet;
The things of every day are all so
sweet!
The common things of life are all so
dear—
The waking in the warm half-gloom,
To find again the old familiar room;
The scents and sights and sounds that
never tire;
The homely work, the plans, the lilt of
baby’s laugh,
The crackle of the open fire;
The waiting, then the footsteps coming
near,
open door, the handclasp and the
kiss.
Is heaven not, after all, the now anti
here?
The common things of life are all so
dear. —Anonymous.
DAVID AND JONATHAN
The classic instance of David
and Jonathan represents the typ
ical friendship. They met, and
at the beginning knew each oth
er to be nearer than kindred. By
Subtle elective affinity they felt
that they belonged to each other.
Out of all the chaos of the time
/and the disorder of their lives,
there arose for these two souls a
new and beautiful world, where
£iere reigned peace, and love,
and sweet content.
It was the miracle of the death
of self. J onathan forgot his pride,
and David his ambition. It was
as the smile of God which chang
ed the world to them. One of
4hem is saved from the tempta
tionf of a squalid court, and the
other from the sourness of an ex
ile’s life. Jonathan’s princely
’Soul had no room for envy or
jealousy. David’s frank nature
rose to meet the magnanimity of
his friend.
In the kingdom of love there
was no disparity between the
king’s son and the shepherd boy.
Such a gift as each gave and re
ceived is not be bought or sold.
It was the fruit of the innate no
bility of both; it softened and
a very trying time for
both. Jonathan withstood his
father’s anger to shield his friend;
David was patient with Saul for
w his son’s sake. They agreed to
be true to each other in their
difficult position. Close and ten
der must have been the bond,
which had such fruit in princely
generosity and mutual loyalty to
soul.— Hugh Black.
