Enthusiasm

the cause of their own delay. Today is the product of our 31 yesterday, and it is given us so that we may each day plus our own consciousness. We can never take out of today anything that we did not create for ourselves in our yesterday. Time and eternity are one. What we build into today passes with us into our tomorrow, and when we face days and days of emptiness, it is a certain fact that in all our yesterdays, we did not accomplish the law of our desires. If one wants to meet a day full of joy, love, peace and opportunity, one must live these things every passing hour, holding fast to them in faith, then as time passes by, one's days plus each other and in some unexpected day one will meet all their own power and a perfect day of joy, love and opportunity will come to them, which will continue according to the power which they have generated. No one is to blame but ourselves if our today narrows down to dull, dreary monotony, and our life to petty confines; we reap what we sow, and we can never reap the harvest of anything unless we have sown the seed somewhere; nothing and nothing make nothing, and the way to get something into expression for ourselves is to set about creating it for ourselves in each hour of living; we can always live unfalteringly in the ultimate until it comes. "Where now we wait a dreary waste may be, With no green thing to glad our longing eyes And Jar away across the bounding seas Are bid the balmy isles of Paradise." If we begin to fill our today with true understanding everything will change for us. There are many portals to Paradise, and we can open one for ourselves any moment by beginning to live in consciousness the law of that which we call "Paradise." Standing fast, then, we can call, and it must come, not by living months and years of waiting, but now, for in full realization, a thousand years are as but as one day! The obsession of tomorrow is always recognized just as easily as one detects the traces of yesterday and today. The obsession limes out all over those who are caught in its negative drag-net. "Going to do it" this is their slogan. "Going to have it" "Some day." The future, like a mighty ruler, stands before them and worshipping it they are blind, deaf and dumb to their present opportunities. There are wondrous avenues of accomplishment opening on every hand, but something in their weak consciousness says, "not now" "some other time." "Going to do it" is the finished law of procrastination. Pro
