Evolution: The Quest of Truth 195 



aside all mental reservations and oppositions 

 to truth, and to do our little, with sympathy 

 and inspiration, to forward the creation. 



All beliefs, all doctrines, all creeds are mine. 

 I want only the truth and the privilege to live 

 in the great good world. Truth, and the quest 

 of truth, are always safe. It is not my part to 

 be anxious about destiny or about the universe. 

 If my tiny opinions are outgrown, I shall wait, 

 in patience and in hope. 



There is grateful release in letting the uni- 

 verse take care of itself. The universe is in 

 better hands than mine. In these matters, I 

 will substitute trust for faith. If I cannot re- 

 move the dandelions from the lawn, then I will 

 love the dandelions. Where once were weeds 

 are now golden coins, bees reveling in color, 

 and the spring sunshine kissing the blossoms 

 with lips of dew. It is so sweet and restful 

 that I abide in peace. 



Passengers on the cosmic sea 

 We know not whence nor whither : 

 J Tis happiness enough to be 

 In tune with wind and weather.
