"The spectrum of Love has nine ingredients:-- _Patience_--'Love suffereth long.' _Kindness_--'And is kind.' _Generosity_--'Love envieth not.' _Humility_--'Love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up.' _Courtesy_--'Doth not behave itself unseemly.' _Unselfishness_--'Seeketh not her own.' _Good Temper_--'Is not easily provoked.' _Guilelessness_--'Thinketh no evil.' _Sincerity_--'Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth.' Patience; kindness; generosity; humility; courtesy; unselfishness; good temper; guilelessness; sincerity--these make up the supreme gift, the stature of the perfect man. You will observe that all are in relation to men, in relation to life, in relation to the known to-day and the near to-morrow, and not to the unknown eternity. We hear much of love to God; Christ spoke much of love to man. We make a great deal of peace with heaven; Christ made much of peace on earth. Religion is not a strange or added thing, but the inspiration of the secular life, the breathing of an eternal spirit through this temporal world. The supreme thing, in short, is not a thing at all, but the giving of a further finish to the multitudinous words and acts which make up the sum of every common day." _The Greatest Thing in the World_, HENRY DRUMMOND. "My Duty to my Neighbour" MAY 11 "There is an idea abroad among moral people that they should make their neighbours good. One person I have to make good: myself. But my duty to my neighbour is much more nearly expressed by saying that I have to make him happy--if I may." _Across the Plains_, R. L. STEVENSON. "Of all the weapons we wield against wrong, there is none more effective than pure and burning joy." _The Gospel of Joy_, STOPFORD BROOKE. "There is no beautifier of complexion, or form, or behaviour, like the wish to scatter joy and not pain around us." EMERSON. Duty of giving Happiness MAY 12
