Ella Wheeler Wilcox's

New Thought Common Sense

"Evolution is better than Revolution. New Thought Library's New Thought Archives encompass a full range of New Thought media from Abrahamic to Vedic reflecting the ongoing evolution of human thought. New Thought's unique inclusion of science, art and philosophy contrasts with 'old thought' Religion. Today's 'New Thought 3.0' teaches personal responsibility, self-development, human rights and compassionate action as essential spiritual paradigms." ~ Avalon de Rossett

same emotions of sympathy and helpfulness that move in us at some crucial hour!

Oh, the pity of it, that we wait for some colossal disaster to awaken in us the real spirit of universal love!

But when you begin to feel blue about your losses, and worried over your poor luck, stop a bit and think what fate befell the people of San Francisco. Imagine yourself stripped of every earthly possession, and standing beside the ash heaps of a great city, and then realize, if you can, what the motto on that half-burned coin means --- "In God We Trust."

The omnipotence of the Creator of this universe, who creates it over and over after each destruction, lies in the soul of each man and woman. It lies in you. If your life seems to be in ruins, if it is in ruins, you can rebuild it with divine help, by acknowledging and using the divine power you possess. Just as San Francisco is being rebuilt, more splendid than before the destruction, so can you rebuild your own life, fortune, health and happiness.

Press on! Achieve! Achieve!
