The Seed of Thought and the Harvest of Life

 


 

As a Man Thinketh


The aphorism, "As a man thinketh in his heart so is he," not only embraces the whole of a man's being, but is so comprehensive as to reach out to every condition and circumstance of his life. A man is literally what he thinks, -his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts.


As the plant springs from, and could not be without, the seed, so every act of a man springs from the hidden seeds of' thought, and could not have appeared without them. This applies equally to those acts called "spontaneous" and "unpremeditated" as to those which are deliberately executed.


Act is the blossom of thought, and joy and suffering are its fruits; thus does a man garner in the sweet and bitter fruitage of his own husbandry.
