Excerpt from Blessed Be Drudgery: And Other Papers
And our Ideals may seem dead and faded and beyond our reach. The following chapters will teach us, if even that be so, how we may idealize our Real, how our Drudgery may become our Blessing, how the Failures, the Burdens, the Temptations, which we are lamenting, may prove our best Friends on the upward way.
A magician's wand is put in our hands, and if we will but consent to use it, we shall see everywhere about us in that lot which seemed so dark but a little ago, gems and treasures inestimable, which only wait to be ours 'by our use of them.
