MY PURPOSEThe world needs me. Otherwise I would not be here. I am a part of the whole and each part is necessary to the welfare of the whole. I will live, think and work in the conviction that I am not only wanted but needed. This great truth shall be my constant inspiration. The welfare of the whole grows greater and greater the better each part does its work. Therefore, I must be nothing less than all that I possibly can be. I am here for a great purpose; life is too important to send me here for any other purpose. And whatever may come or go, to that purpose I shall ever be true. Life to me means the being of my best and the doing of my best, so that all the world may be better. I shall not live for things but for the greater life which reigns in the spirit of things; nor shall the coming or going of things cause me to depart from the lofty positions I have taken. To me there can be no defeat, no failure, no loss. He is never defeated who wins the life he has elected to live. He knows no failure who gains richer life from every experience, circumstance, or event that may come to pass. He knows no loss who ascends to the greater whenever the lesser seems to pass away; and this I propose to do. This I must do to be true to the life I am here to live. My first thought shall be to love much; my second, to do much - but I shall do nothing that will not add to the happiness and welfare of some one. My aim shall be to reach the heights, not that I alone may enjoy their splendor, but that others may find the way. My face shall be turned to the light of the Great Eternal Sun; and to become a living revelation of that light shall be the dearest wish of my heart. - Rev. H. Edward Mills
