HOW TO LOOK
AT YOUR LIFE
A present dayauthor
writing on this subect. "How
to look at your Life". said,
"Roses have thorns and
' thorns have roses."
Life is made that way. All
assets have liabilities and all
liabilities have assets. Those
who laugh the most will cry
the most. Those who cry the
most will laugh the most.;
Those 'Who love the dearest
wily suffer the dearest loses,
for nothing is permanent in
this life, and all must some
day be -given up.
When a child is born he is
born to die. Hence, the joys of
the maternity ward will some
day be balanced by the tears
of the mortuary,
If there are a few children
there are fewer finger marks
on the walls. fewer sleepless
nights. and fewer doctor bills.
,Perhaps in the tend, it is true _
that our joys and sorrows all
come out even.
If one has few friends, he
will lose few friends, The
more friends that one has, the
more times that he will have
to go to the cemetery With a
broken heart:
Since every asset: has
liabilities and every liability
has ;assets, could it be. then
that none of us has a worse
time than the rest -011,10H' the
above be true there are
several lessons that can be
learned.
, I. HAPPINESS DEPENDS
UPON WHETHER WE
MAGNIFY THE ASSETS OR
LIABILITIES. If every bad
has a good and every good
has a bad. and if life's assets
and liabilities are all evened
out in the end, then each of us
has the same possibilities of
happiness. Those who look at
the liabilitiesmore than the
assets become unhappy.
Those who magnify the assets
over the liabilities become
happy. May we rejoice over..
the having of the child rather
than sorrow over the
fingerprintsoon the wall.
IF' THE ABOVE BE
TRUE. NO ONE HAS IT
WORSE THAN THE OTHER.
- Even in our defeats there
are lessons we learn that the
victorious ones never know.
Hence, one has no more right
to complain than another.
:1. A REALIZATION ,OF
THIS TRUTH WELL CURE
ENVY. • Why envy.another if.
Choke Maker
Now days most people
call their adopted children
'chosen ones'
But we didn't choose ours
and she didn't choose us:
Arriving on our doorstep
a scared, reluctant thirteen year old
she'later told me at her first glance of me
she thought defiantly "Who'9 the shrimp?"
Inwardly I groaned, my stomach doing cartwheels
"Oh my, what a BIG girl".
She came to stay two weeks
until a permanent home
Was found for her.... '
and never left
Storms, fights, frustrations, tears
and red-hot anger days
almost convinced us
it would never work:
Vet through it all we always sensed
Your Presence
Supported by your love and guidance
a spangled metamorphosis took place
We thank and bless you Lord
for this your child .
our beautiful daughter
Thank ypu for choosing us ;
' for her
1 Didn't Go
He wanted me to go to the hockey game
I said no
I don't like hockey games
and Iwon't go
So he went by himself
and now I'm sorry
Next time I'll go
with him
even though
/don't want to
At least
I think
Iwill

clx. THIS TRUTH, W I L
MAKE US. CHOOSE .A LIF
THAI' A
'T D
OEs
THE
MOS
.... QB RS -.—If ..the. boo

.then we will come ou
even regardless. Could it b
then that the grasping of thi
philosophy will lead us to
choose the kind of life that
will do the most for others? In
other words. if there is no wa
at all that•we can gain mor
assets than liabilities, w
may then center our attentio
on helping others to. gat
assets.
5. THIS TRUTH WILL
TAKE AWAY THE DESIRE
FOR PERSONAL GAIN AND
SELFISHNESS. - That thing
that you will want will bring
with it a liability that you
- may not want to assume. The
more things you own, the
more things you can break.
The more conveniences that
one obtains the more repair
bills he will have. Hence we
are led simply to say to God,
"Give us what you know is
best for us' and we will trust
your wisdom and j_udgment."
6.. THIS TRUTH WILL
DRIVE US TO DO THE WILL
OF GOD. • If all our at-
tainments and obtainrnents
lead us to the same place,
then we must cast ourselves
upon the Lord' and upon his
will. Nothing else will much
matter but that which he
wants us to do. If there is no
asset that does not bring with
it a liability, there can be
nothing that we really do
want or do not want, If we
obtain it, we can rejoice
because of its assets. If we do
not obtain it, we can thank
God for the privilege of not
having to accept the liability.
So since it is six ol one and a
half dozen of the other we can
turn our eyes toward Jesus
and say, "Thy will be done".
