Summary |
"New Thought Pastels" by Ella Wheeler Wilcox is a collection of poems written during the early 20th century. This book reflects the author's philosophical musings and spiritual insights, emphasizing themes of love, consciousness, and the power of thought. It's an exploration of New Thought principles, aiming to inspire readers to embrace positive thinking and self-empowerment. The poems within "New Thought Pastels" touch on various aspects of human experience and spirituality. In pieces like "Fear," Wilcox personifies fear as an adversary to faith, urging readers to confront it bravely. Other poems, such as "Affirm" and "The Law," highlight the importance of affirming one's existence and harnessing the creative force of thought. Through allegorical dialogues and thought-provoking reflections, Wilcox encourages readers to draw strength from love and embrace an eternal perspective, culminating in the poignant realization that love transcends earthly existence, suggesting that "there is no death, there are no dead." The work celebrates the inner strength of individuals and their connection to the divine, advocating for a life full of hope, positivity, and spiritual awareness.
