Life's Problems: Essays; Moral, Social, and Psychological (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Life's Problems: Essays; Moral, Social, and Psychological

A lefs ferious, and a more popular or attrae tive form perhaps might have been given to thefe flray chapters, if the problems of which they treat had been moulded into a work of fiction: but a more conneéied narrative would have been lefs in harmony with that broken fragmentary character which life itfelf takes, in relation to all its graver lefl'ons, and the reflec tions which thefe fuggeft. Conviétions of flow growth, intermingled with many doubts and fears, make up the Pafl; and give a charaéter of their own to the prefent as well as the Future. That thefe experiences of a life, on which age has already written indelible lines, - a life fpent in many varied fcenes - in circumftances often of a thought-compelling character; touching, as they do, fome of the great problems of our. Deftiny, - may in like earnefl fpirit find refponfe, and meet a want where friends to fupply it are few, is the belt hope of the writer.
