What reading level is The Steps of Life Further Essays On Happiness book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" A man of the right sort does not go through life without making enemies ; but it is a fine thing, of course, if at the end of his life he no longer has any.
By this I do not mean to imply that this intercourse with enemies is an easy matter ; on the contrary, it belongs to the most difficult tasks of a rightly conducted life. It is particularly hard to endure a long series of injustices which seem to have success on their side. Here comes the need of faith in a just God, who can employ even t...he wicked as his instru- ments, but can hold them so firmly in hand that they may go no farther than he wills. Otherwise we should not go through these things without harm. Surely no one who has learned to know himself 92 will make the assertion that he is already a past-master in this art.
Trust in God is the first essential ; after that, the best means for acquiring this art is seriously to resolve that we will, as much as possible, avoid useless anger, and take care not to judge our opponents unjustly ; and in any case never to allow real hatred to settle in the soul.
