Divorce or no divorce you are tied to a man until you think yourself untied.

Be still and find your mental freedom.  Then you will know what to do.

A year after I wrote the above letter to a young woman who wanted to leave her husband and go to her “soul mate,” I received from her another letter in which she thanked me from her heart for my letter, which, she said, had saved her from a terrible mistake.  She had let time try the new love; who was found sadly wanting.  More than that she had come to love and respect her husband as never before.  Many others, both men and women, have written me to the same effect.

Can you learn from the experiences of others—­learn caution at least?  I hope so.  Be sure you are right before you resort to separation.

In the meantime make it the aspiration and business of your life to know that ALL things are NOW working for good to you and your mate, and all you hold in common.

Keep sweet, dearie, and let them work—­at least until you know exactly what to do, and how to do it; and can feel sure in your heart of hearts that, whatever the consequences, you will never regret your action.
