Listen to episode 927 of the Inspirational Living podcast: You Can Start Living a Larger Life. Edited and adapted from The Open Door by Hugh Black.
Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: A new experience should open the way to a larger life. It should bring fresh insight, wider interest, and keener sympathy. Many people do not use their new experiences, but only enjoy them.
A great happiness will sometimes come to a person and they will rejoice in it, but yet they may not let it enlarge their life. Strangely enough, we sometimes find it only narrows the person. So a sorrow, which we would expect to soften and deepen them, will often only harden and embitter.

| 1:49.8 | Thank you. Door by Hugh Black, published in 1914. What is the real world? Is it the world as people thought of it yesterday, or as we think of it today, |
| 1:59.0 | or as it will be viewed tomorrow. |
| 2:02.9 | Our habit of treating it as something fixed seems almost incurable. |
| 2:09.1 | In most ages, the world has been for humanity like a prison, ample and roomy, even with |
| 2:17.0 | pleasure grounds attached, but still a prison. |
