Spiritual Laws
by Ralph Waldo Emerson
The whole course of things goes to teach us faith. We need only obey. There is guidance for each of us, and by lowly listening we shall heard the right world . . . . Place yourself in the middle of the stream of power and wisdom which flows into you as life, place yourself in the full center of that flood, then you are without effort impelled to truth, to right, and a perfect contentment.
