28. Patience

No one should pick a problem, or make a resolution, unless he realizes that the ultimate value of it will offset the inevitable discomfort and trouble that always go along with the accomplishment of anything worth while. So let us not waste our time and effort on some trivial thing.

Next year will, undoubtedly, be an important one. We should all be prepared to contribute the great amount of energy and patience that will be required to make it one of lasting benefit to mankind, by setting a pattern for permanent Peace. ●
