Excerpt from Moods of Life: Popular Psychological Studies of Affairs of Every DayIfe is magical. To be alive, to feel, to see in L every object that lies about not a dull, circum scribed mass, but something that on light wings can carry our thoughts afar, to know that - there we can steer out towards the infinite, or feel again trembling on the nerves and warming in the heart tender affections, visions, deep love - all this seems to me wonderful.Life is a great adventure. In being born we have already, even without our consent, done some thing that demanded courage. What! To take our place on a little island in Space, to be whirled about the sun and the stars, to enter upon a journey we know not whither, and where we must seek ever. Why -to have one great opportunity of meeting realities, of finding ourselves. Yes, that is mar vellons.It does not always so appear. That is in part because our senses are dulled by the daily round of the workaday world, we are apt to lose the joy of life and miss in the struggle to live at all the mean ing of being. It is well, therefore, to keep our win dows clear, opening Up to fine perspectives of life.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
