Nature is Friendly to Your Plans

Nature is friendly to your plans. Everything is naturally for you.
Make up your mind that this is true. It is essential, however, that your
purpose should harmonize with the purpose that is in all. You must
want real life, not mere pleasure or sensual gratification. Life is the
performance of function, and the individual really lives only when he performs every function — physical, mental, and spiritual — of which
he is capable, without excess in any. You do not want to get rich in
order to live swinishly, for the gratification of animal desires. That is
not life. But the performance of every physical function is a part of life,
and no one lives completely who denies the impulses of the body a
normal and healthful expression.
