As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
Présentation de l'éditeur
The Second Mile HEN lago says about Desdemona that she holds it a vice in her goodness not to do more than is requested, he lays his dis criminating finger on a trait of character not ordinarily worked up in the systems of ethics. Nowhere does he better justify his own comment on himself, I am nothing if not criti cal. And it is precisely this trait of character on which lago with his devilish ingenuity lighted for his evil pur pose, that Jesus made the crown of the moral life. The distinctively Christian quality is to hold it a vice in our goodness not to do more than is requested.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a profound and often overlooked aspect of human character: the willingness to go above and beyond what is required. Drawing inspiration from diverse sources, including biblical teachings and Shakespearean characters, the author explores the concept of the "second mile" ââ â the voluntary and joyful embrace of service that transcends mere obligation. Through compelling narratives and thought-provoking insights, the book challenges readers to examine their own attitudes towards duty, work, and personal limitations. It demonstrates how embracing the spirit of the second mile can transform drudgery into privilege, bitterness into joy, and ultimately, lead to a more fulfilling and impactful life. This book is not merely a theoretical treatise on morality; it is a call to action. It invites readers to consider how they can apply the principle of the second mile in their own lives, whether in their personal relationships, their professional endeavors, or their contributions to society. By embracing this spirit of generosity and compassion, we can not only find greater meaning and purpose in our own lives, but also contribute to a more just and loving world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331924432_0
