Synopsis:

Excerpt from The Lights and Shadows of Real Life

TO all, as they pass through the world, come light and shadow. Though the sun may be in the heavens, clouds Often intervene, and cast deep shadows about our footsteps. But, it is a truth which we cannot too deeply lay to heart, that, in our life, as in nature, the exhalations which form the obscuring cloud arise from below. They are not born in the pure heavens, but spring out Of the earth beneath. If there was nothing evil in the mind, there would be no cloud in the sky of our being, - all would be eternal sunshine.
