The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Spirit of the Border by Zane Grey: have grown wise. When your days are done you will meet all your loved ones in
the beautiful forest. There, where the flowers bloom, the fruits ripen always,
where the pleasant water glides and the summer winds whisper sweetly, there
peace will dwell forever.
"Comrades, be wise, think earnestly. Forget the wicked paleface; for there are
many wicked palefaces. They sell the serpent firewater; they lie and steal and
kill. These palefaces' eyes are still clouded. If they do not open they will
never see the beautiful forest. You have much to forgive, but those who
forgive please the Great Spirit; you must give yourselves to love, but those
who love are loved; you must work, but those who work are happy.
"Behold the Village of Peace! Once it contained few; now there are many.
