The Preventive System in Education: As in Use in the Schools of the Salesian Congregation
Abstract
Everything created is subject to change— changes substantial, changes accidental— even the spiritual part of man’s being has its fluctuations, going from the imperfect to the perfect or vice versa, gifted today with wonderful insight amounting almost to intuition, and to-morrow plodding along the hard road of cold reason with but meagre results. In this unceasing variation of things and events, more wonderful even than the infinite variety of melodies that can be produced by a diverse grouping of notes in music, is it to be wondered at that man’s outlook on life changes with the passing of the years, and that every now and again he must pull himself up, take his bearings in the new order of events, and set his sails in accordance with the changing winds of fortune, so that he may still accomplish his design in life and reach the objective for which he set out.
