The
Light for a Good Man
Here is the light for a good man who finds himself
surrounded by unhappy conditions. He has made his character, and he has also
made his circumstances.
His good thoughts and desires have made him what he
is; the misdirection of them has created the environment through which he
suffers. Let him, then, not be satisfied with being good, but see to it also
that his influence on all around him is beneficial. Then shall it react on him
as good environment.
For instance: a mother is very unselfish, and she
spoils her son by yielding, at her own cost, to all his whims, aiding him not
at all to overcome his own selfish inclinations, fostering the lower nature,
starving the higher.
The son grows up selfish, uncontrolled, the slave of
his own whims and desires. He causes unhappiness in the home, perchance brings
upon it debt and disgrace. This reaction is the environment she created by her
unwisdom, and she must bear the distresses it brings upon her.
A selfish man may, on the other hand, create for
himself in the future an environment regarded as fortunate by the world. With
the hope of gaining a title, he builds a hospital and equips it fully; many
sufferers therein find relief, many sick unto death have their last moments
soothed, many children are lovingly nursed back into health. The reaction from
all this will be easy and pleasant surroundings for himself; he will reap the
harvest of the physical good which he has sown. But his selfishness will also
sow according to its kind, and mentally and morally he will reap that harvest
also, a harvest of disappointment and of pain.
