Despair

Nameless despair is man’s only reward for living and toiling under the temporal sun of mortal existence. 102:0.1-2

Jesus' words to Fortune, the young downcast, were: “My friend, arise! Stand up like a man! Your mind should be your courageous ally in the solution of your life problems rather than your being, as you have been, its abject fear-slave and the bond servant of depression and defeat”. 130:6
