And if your husband should be one of those rich modern young men who seem to have no sense of balance or responsibility, but pass their lives rushing from one sport to another, try to curb his restlessness and teach him that a great position entails great obligations and that he must justify his ownership of it in the eyes of the people who now hold the casting vote in their inexperienced hands. AND IF YOUR HUSBAND SHOULD BE ONE OF THOSE RICH MODERN YOUNG MEN WHO SEEM TO HAVE NO SENSE OF BALANCE OR RESPONSIBILITY BUT PASS THEIR LIVES RUSHING FROM ONE SPORT TO ANOTHER TRY TO CURB HIS RESTLESSNESS AND TEACH HIM THAT A GREAT POSITION ENTAILS GREAT OBLIGATIONS AND THAT HE MUST JUSTIFY HIS OWNERSHIP OF IT IN THE EYES OF THE PEOPLE WHO NOW HOLD THE CASTING VOTE IN THEIR INEXPERIENCED HANDS
u are being for his comfort. Do not be touchy and easily hurt. Remember he may be thoughtless, but while he loves you he certainly has no deliberate intention of wounding you. Be cheerful and gay, and if he is depressed by outside worries show him you think him capable of overcoming them all. Let your thoughts of him be always that he is the greatest and best, and the current of them, vitalized by love, will assist him to become so in fact. Think of all the young couples that you know. How few of them are really in love with each other after the first year! They have bartered the best and most exquisite joy for such poor returns--and they could have kept their Heaven’s gift if they had only thought carefully over the things which are likely to destroy it. I believe you play the piano most charmingly, Caroline--in an easy way which gives pleasure to everyone. Do not, when you marry, give this up and let it be relegated into the background, as so many girls do with their accomplishments. AND THOUGHTFUL THAN YOU ARE BEING FOR HIS COMFORT DO NOT BE TOUCHY AND EASILY HURT REMEMBER HE MAY BE THOUGHTLESS BUT WHILE HE LOVES YOU HE CERTAINLY HAS NO DELIBERATE INTENTION OF WOUNDING YOU BE CHEERFUL AND GAY AND IF HE IS DEPRESSED BY OUTSIDE WORRIES SHOW HIM YOU THINK HIM CAPABLE OF OVERCOMING THEM ALL LET YOUR THOUGHTS OF HIM BE ALWAYS THAT HE IS THE GREATEST AND BEST AND THE CURRENT OF THEM VITALISED BY LOVE WILL ASSIST HIM TO BECOME SO IN FACT THINK OF ALL THE YOUNG COUPLES THAT YOU KNOW HOW FEW OF THEM ARE REALLY IN LOVE WITH EACH OTHER AFTER THE FIRST YEAR THEY HAVE BARTERED THE BEST AND MOST EXQUISITE JOY FOR SUCH POOR RETURNS AND THEY COULD HAVE KEPT THEIR HEAVEN SKIFT IF THEY HAD ONLY THOUGHT CAREFULLY OVER THE THINGS WHICH ARE LIKELY TO DESTROY IT I BELIEVE YOU PLAY THE PIANO MOST CHARMINGLY CAROLINE IN AN EASY WAY WHICH GIVES PLEASURE TO EVERYONE DO NOT WHEN YOU MARRY GIVE THIS UP AND LET IT BE RELEGATED INTO THE BACKGROUND AS SO MANY GIRLS DO WITH THEIR ACCOMPLISHMENTS
