Eventually I will find myself reacting to all situations which confront me as I was manded in the scrolls to react; and soon these actions and reactions will bee easy to perform; for any act with practice bees easy。

Thus a new and good habit is born; for when an act bees easy through constant repetiton it bees a pleasure to perform and if it is a pleasure to perform it is man's nature to perform it often。 When I perform it often it bees a habit and I bee its slave and since it is a good habit this is my will。

Today I begin a new life。

And I make a solemn oath to myself that nothing will retard my new life's growth。 I will lose not a day from these readings for that day cannot be retrieved nor can I substitute another for it。 I must not ; I will not; break this habit of daily reading from these scrolls and; in truth; the few moments spent each day on this new habit are but a small price to pay for the happiness and success that will be mine。

As I read and re…read the words in the scrolls to follow; never will I allow the brevity of each scroll nor the simplicity of its words to cause me to treat the scroll's message lightly。 Thousands of grapes are pressed to fill one jar with wine; and the grapeskin and pulp are tossed to the birds。 So it is with these grapes of wisdom from the ages。 Much has been filtered and tossed to the wind。Only the pure truth lies distilled in the words to e。 I will drink as instructed and spill not a drop。 And the seed of success I will swallow。

Today my old skin has bee as dust。 I will walk tall among men and they will know me not ; for today I am a new man; with a new life。

The Scroll Marked Two 
I will greet this day with love in my heart。

For this is the greatest secret of success in all ventures。 Muscle can split a shield and even destroy life but only the unseen power of love can open the hearts of men and until I master this art I will remain no more than a peddler in the market place。 I will make love my greatest weapon and none on whom I call can defend against its force。

My reasoning they may counter; my speech they may distrust; my apparel they may disapprove; my face they may reject; and even my bargains may cause them suspicion; yet my love will melt all hearts liken to the sun whose rays soften the coldest clay。

I will greet this day with love in my heart。

And how will I do this? Henceforth will I look on all things with love and I will be born again。 I will love the sun for it warms my bones; yet I will love the rain for it cleanses my spirit。 I will love the light for it shows me the way; yet I will love the darkness for it shows me the stars。 I will wele happiness for it enlarges my heart; yet I will endure sadness for it opens my soul。 I will acknowledge rewards for they are my due; yet I will wele obstacles for they are my challenge。

I will greet this day with love in my heart。

And how will I speak? I will laud mine enemies and they will bee friends; I will encourage my friends and they will bee brothers。 Always will I dig for reasons to applaud; never will I scratch for excuses to gossip。 When I am tempted to criticize I will bite on my tongue; when I am moved to praise I will shout from the roofs。

Is it not so that birds; the wind; the sea and all nature speaks with the music of praise for their creator? Cannot I speak with the same music to his children? Henceforth will I remember this secret and it will change my life。

I will greet this day with love in my heart。

And how will I act? I will love all manners of men for each has qualities to be admired even though they be hidden。 With love I will tear down the wall fo suspicion and hate which they have built round their hearts and in its place will I build bridges so that my love may enter their souls。

I will love the ambitious for they can inspire me! I will love the failures for they can teach me。 I will love the kings for they are but human; I will love the meek for they are divine。 I will love the richfor they are yet lonely; I will love the poor for they are so many。 I will love the young for the faith they hold; I will love the beautiful for their eyes of sadness; I will love the ugly for their souls of peace。

I will greet this day with love in my heart。

But how will I react to the actions of others? With love。 For just as love is my weapon to open the hearts of men; love is also my shield to repulse the arrows of hate and the spears of anger。 Adversity and discouragement will beat against my new shield and bee as the softest of rains。 My shield will protect me in the market place and sustain me when I am alone。 It will uplift me in moments of despair yet it will calm me in time of exultation。 It will bee stronger and more protective with use until one day I will cast it aside and walk unencumbered among all manners of men and; when I do; my name will be raised high on the pyramid of life。

I will greet this day with love in my heart。

And how will I confront each whom I meet? In only one way。 In silence and to myself I will address him and say I Love You。 Though spoken in silence these words will shine in my eyes; unwrinkle my brow; bring a smile to my lips; and echo in my voice; and hisheart will be opened。 And who is there who will say nay to my goods when his heart feels my love?

I will greet this day with love in my heart。

And most of all I will love myself。 For when I do I will zealously inspect all things which enter my body; my mind; my soul; and my heart。 Never will I overindulge the requests of my flesh; rather I will cherish my body with cleanliness and moderation。 Never will I allow my mind to be attracted to evil and despair; rather I will uplift it with the knowledge and wisdom of the ages。 Never will I allow my soul to bee placent and satisfied; rather I will feed it with meditation and prayer。 Never will I allow my heart to bee small and bitter; rather I will share it and it will grow and warm the earth。

I will greet this day with love in my heart。

Henceforth will I love all mankind。 From this moment all hate is let from my veins for I have not time to hate; only time to love。 From this moment I take the first step required to bee a man amo
