Good Rule to Follow.

Half of the fun of anything is looking forward to it, and the other half is looking back at it; the climax, the event Itself, is merely the point at which the two kinds of pleasure meet inj the middle. Learn to go to your good time, when you have earned it, with the full expectation of enjoying yourself; and \£hen it is over, let the happy memory of it keep coming back to bless and sweeten the subsequent days. To a great extent, however, you go, you bring your own happines with you. You will have the best time by giving it to others, contradictory as this may seem. You will look back with most satisfaction on the occasion, when you were “the life of the party,” when you entered into the fun and made most of it yourself, and did not sit back and expect to have it made for you.
