Synopsis:
Things That Have Helped People This collection of New Thought nuggets, says the author, “may possess no literary merit, but they have helped men and women”. With the exception of "The Secret of the I Am," these essays appeared from month to month in "New Thought Magazine." They may appear somehow unpolished, because a "nugget" polished up would be no longer a nugget. The author continues: “These thoughts are nuggets—I dug them myself. I will not say much regarding the quality of the metal—that is for you—but you see them just as they came from the mine—rough, unpolished, mixed with the rock, queerly shaped. If you think that they contain metal of sufficiently good quality, refine them, melt them and fashion them into something useful or ornamental. For myself, I like things with the bark on—with the marks of the hammer—with the original quartz adhering to the metal. But others are of different taste—they like everything to feel smooth to the touch. They will not like these nuggets. Alas, I cannot help it—I cannot produce the beautifully finished article—I have nothing to offer other than the crude product of the mine. Here they are, polish them up yourself if you prefer them in that shape —I will not touch them. W. W. A.
