From my book, Three Principles of Angelic Wisdom.
“Dumping the Garbage”
More than one hundred twenty-five years ago, Dr. James
Martin Peebles wrote:
“The oak remembers not each leaf it bore; and yet each leaf
and bough and brawny limb help to make up the towering tree. Many of the acts
and minor events of our lives have died out, or cease to echo in the memory
chambers of our souls; still, their results live in our characters. Let then,
be forgotten! It is not wise to brood over the broken rounds of the ladder our
feet just pressed. The summit of the temple is to be reached. Direct the eye
upward, and press forward towards the higher altitudes of heavenly truth and
wisdom.”
From his home on the spirit side, Dr. Peebles now had this
to say about his terrestrial statement:
“I still agree with all that I wrote as one has to let go of
the backward-looking memories in order to continue on a smooth path toward
enlightenment. There is no point in retracing or brooding over where one has
walked. The movement is forward and upward. To stop on one broken round of the
ladder and to not step beyond to the next, stifles.”
