It is wonderful how love transfigures a life. It changes all the world to our eyes. People are not seen now with critical spirit, watching for faults; nor with sensitive spirit, shrinking from every unkindly touch, and resenting every rude, disagreeable, or ever unjust thing in their treatment of us; nor, with exacting spirit, demanding attention, claiming rights, and measuring and counting favours due. Love sees in every other person one to be served, to be ministered unto, to be helped, to be patiently borne with, to be treated kindly in spite of his faults. Love transforms all conditions of life, all circumstances. Its business is to be sweet, no matter the weathers or the worry or the suffering, and it thus takes the bitterness out of whatever would otherwise be bitter. Thus it makes the whole life bright and radiant.
