Back to THOUGHTS FOR THE QUIET HOUR
There are many loveless things in the world
There are many loveless things in the world, but few
more so than that of unkindness—the gall and wormwood
of injured and unrequited friendship, a cold cynicism the
recompense of beneficent deed or generous gift.
How easy, how gracious, on the other hand, is "that most
excellent gift of love!" While it "seeks not its own," it is
a deposit paid back in compound interest. No other forces
of the soul can compensate for the lack of love. Amiability
and courtesy, benevolence and sympathy, outlive the more
heroic virtues.
"In her tongue is the law of kindness." Proverbs 31:26
