praying

...she said the thing a body could get by praying for it was "spiritual gifts." This was too many for me, but she told me what she meant-I must help other people, and do everything I could for other people, and look out for them all the time, and never think about myself. This was including Miss Watson, as I took it. I went out in the woods and turned it over in my mind a long time, but I couldn't see no advantage about it-except for the other people-so at last I reckoned I wouldn't worry about it anymore, but just let it go.
