We will be what we will to be.
March 22, 2013
Life is an inside out game. Through our own volition or will we can create a life we would love living. Take a look at this quote by James Allen from his book “As a Man Thinketh” and ask yourself if you are living according to Environment, Circumstance, and Chance or by Spirit and Will.
You will be what you will to be;
Let failure find its false content
In that poor word, “Environment”,
But Spirit scorns it, and is free.
It masters time, it conquers space;
It cowes that boastful trickster, Chance,
And bids the tyrant Circumstance
Uncrown, and fill a servant’s place.
The human Will, that force unseen,
The offspring of a deathless Soul,
Can hew a way to any goal,
Though walls of granite intervene.
Be not impatient in delays
But wait as one who understands;
When Spirit rises and commands
The gods are ready to obey.
