HOW
TO ATTRACT FRIENDS
THE
man who has learned to
love all people, no matter who they may
be, will find plenty of people who will
return that love to him. This not mere
sentiment, and it is more than a religious
attitude of mind; it is a deep scientific
fact, and one to which we should pay attention.
The reason is this: As all is mind, and
as we attract to us what we first become,
until we learn to love we are not sending
out love vibrations, and not until we
send out love vibrations can we receive
love in return.
One
of the first things to do is to learn
to love everybody. If you have not done
this, begin to do so at once. There is
always more good than bad in people, and
seeing the good tends to bring it forth.
Love is the greatest healing and drawing
power on earth. It is the very reason
for our being, and that explains why it
is that people should have something or
somebody to love.
The
life that has not loved has not lived;
it is still dead. Love is the sole impulse
for creation; and the man who does not
have the greatest incentive in his life
has never developed the real creative
instinct. No one can swing into the Universal
without love, for the whole universe is
based upon it.
When
we find that we are without friends, the
thing to do is at once send our thought
out to the whole world -- send it full
of love and affection. Know that this
thought will meet the desires of some
other person who is wanting the same thing,
and in some way the two will be drawn
together. Get over thinking that people
are queer. That
