We must be like the fountain or spring that is continually
emptying itself of all that it has and is continually being refilled from an
invisible source. To be continually giving out for the good of our fellows
undeterred by fear of poverty and reliant on the unfailing bounty of the Source
of all wealth and all good — this is the secret of right living.
