With the year winding down and the tragedies in Asia, this short thing from Albert Pike, seems appropriate.
“But knowing that we shall live forever and that the Infinite God loves us all, we can look on all the evils of the world and see that it is only the hour before sunrise and that the dawn is coming; and so, we also, even we, may light a little taper to illuminate the darkness while it lasts and wait until the day spring come.
Eternal morning follows the night and a rainbow scarves the shoulder of every cloud that weeps its rain away to be flowers on land and pearls at sea. Life rises out of the grave and the soul cannot be held by quivering flesh. No dawn is hopeless and disaster is only the threshold of delight."
