Thoughts I Met on the Highway Ralph Waldo Trine Thoughts are forces-like builds like and like attracts like. Thoughts of strength both build strength from within and attract it from without. Thoughts of weakness actualize weakness from within and attract it from without. Courage begets strength, fear begets weakness. And so courage begets success, fear begets failure. Any way the old world goesHappy be the weather!With the red thorn or the roseSingin' all together!Don't you see that sky o' blue!Good Lord painted it for youReap the daisies in the dewSingin' all together!Springtime sweet, an' frosty fallHappy be the weather!Earth has gardens for us all, Goin' on together.Sweet the labor in the light, To the harvest's gold and white-Till the toilers say "Good night,"Singin' all together!
