. ,- ,.,,.- ,....-.,,'-,fs ,W --.-Q.. .V AIR CASTLES I built a castle in the air, It fell to earthy I knew not where. A castle-at the mere mention of the word, a vision rises before us of the beautiful old castle of long ago, with its graceful flanking towers, fanciful staircases and fair princesses. A romantic thought, indeed! . Well then, you say, what is an air castle? They are the fondest dreams, tenderest aspirations, and amorous hopes of the human heart, woven together in- the great vague hope that some day they may become a part of our reality. We all have our day dreams. Youth in all its glory must build its castles. They belong to them. They are a part of them. Do not we all dream of, maybe, some day falling into possession of some rich inheritance or perhaps finding our name written in the hall of fame. And, who does not, within his innermost self, hope some day of meeting that handsome lover, brave and bolcl. What a great source of joy and happiness flows from the joyful anticipation of these vagaries: and yet, how sad and bitter the disappointment--sometimes-when we see them vanish from our vision. How often are our dreams not vain and selfish, and when they fail, we turn with sinking of heart-from these prostrated masses-and wonder why. Dreams based on things unsubstantial, castles biiilt on the pleasures of the world, hopes founded on abstract foundations can- not endure. Our foolish young hearts grow frigid within us, and we turn in pain and remorse-when they come crashing in torrential downpour at our Set. Let us build our castles on truly noble purposes establishing them on possi- bilities, not improbabilities. Let us build them really beautiful with Christ as our foundation and not the world or our own vain imaginary visions. When we build our castles upon the rock, they will be concrete and the storms of life' will not sway them. And now, at this, the dawning of our lives, let us strive' earnestly and prayer- fully to build this castle. Then, and only then, will our dreams become realities and our castles stand firm forever. y ll I built a castle in the air, It stood firm: God was there. Betty Beezhold, Prize Essay 28
