Finding a Soul: A Spiritual Autobiography (Classic Reprint)

Overview

Excerpt from Finding a Soul: A Spiritual Autobiography

On reading over this heart-moving story of Loss and Gain, I am conscious of two deep emotions - of pity and of awe.

Of pity: not for the world in its loss of a musician of rare ability and understanding: the world needs heroines more than musicians, and the harmony of a life attuned in perfect concord to the will of God is of far greater import to the well-being of the world than the composition or the most brilliant execution of the grandest symphony, conceived or conceivable. Not for the artiste, whose talent, while the tapering fingers drudge incessantly at a Remington s keyboard, has been denied perforce all expression and growth; for there is that in any honest toil, however otherwise unsuitable or irksome, which inevitably brings pleasure and contentment, when already the heart is at peace with itself.
