"Byways
to Blessedness"
by James Allen
Along
the highways of Burma there is placed, at regular distances
away from the dust of the road, and under the cool shade
of a group of trees, a small wooden building called
a "rest-house", where the weary traveller
may rest a while, and allay his thirst and assuage his
hunger and fatigue by partaking of the food and water
which the kindly inhabitants place there as a religious
duty.
Along
the great highway of life there are such resting places;
away from the heat of passion and the dust of disappointment,
under the cool and refreshing shade of lowly Wisdom,
are the humble, unimposing "rest-houses" of
peace, and the little, almost unnoticed, byways of blessedness,
where alone the weary and footsore can find strength
and healing.
In
this book James shows you how taking the time to rest
and go within will help you to create what you want
"without".
