Half way through my book I found another great quote...
From Ch. 7 - Gathering the Borderlands: The Sky Islands of the Southwest
An excerpted poem - titled: "Old Earth," by Drum Hadley (2005). In, Voice of the Borderlands, pp. 16. Rio Nuevo, 2005. Old Earth We are gathering these Borderlands together, Mesas, arroyos, and valleys as far as our eyes can see, Blue mountain range upon mountain range forever, Turning towards dawnlight, then into the evening West, As far as pale North sky circling South, to where vaqueros Come crossing horseback by the broken mesas in Mexico. (Bernard, 2010 - p. 138) |

“In your life, you meet people. Some you never think about again. Some, you wonder what happened to them. There are some that you wonder if they ever think about you. And then there are some you wish you never had to think about again. But you do.”

" All they got is freedom and pride; keeping their word and taking care of each other. "
" All they got are rules " " They're not written down you damn fool, they're lived." " They don't work for anybody. They work for their life." ~~~~Movie quotes- Monte Walsh |

“What is the quality of your intent?
Certain people have a way of saying things that shake us at the core. Even when the words do not seem harsh or offensive, the impact is shattering. What we could be experiencing is the intent behind the words. When we intend to do good, we do. When we intend to do harm, it happens. What each of us must come to realize is that our intent always comes through. We cannot sugarcoat the feelings in our heart of hearts. The emotion is the energy that motivates. We cannot ignore what we really want to create. We should be honest and do it the way we feel it. What we owe to ourselves and everyone around is to examine the reasons of our true intent. My intent will be evident in the results.” |
“He who wants a rose must respect the thorn.”

Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.
~Hans Christian Anderson |
“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.” - Charles R. Swindoll |
Here is the test to find whether your mission on earth is finished. If you're alive, it isn't.
~Richard Bach |
“To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing." - Author Unknown |
"And this, our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything." ~William Shakespeare |
Be wise to insure that every idle word spoken is carried with peace, driven with love, and filled with hope. For this we know is certain, one day our words will become our last. (f)

"Mirth is like a flash of lightning, that breaks through a gloom of clouds, and glitters for a moment; cheerfulness keeps up a kind of daylight in the mind, and fills it with a steady and perpetual serenity."
-Joseph Addison (1672-1719) British Essayist Truly spiritual people are light-hearted and filled with joy! They love a good laugh and are the first to share a smile. These are the kinds of people who brighten our day just by showing up. How much we can learn from this! We're all connected, so it makes sense that if one person is "up" it helps all of us to rise up. Let's be the person who shines through the clouds today. -Lissa Coffey From one of my favorite daily emails...Coffeytalk. |

Way too much coffee. But if it weren't for the coffee, I'd have no identifiable personality whatsoever. ~David Letterman |
From Alice Walker....
I tell you, Chickadee I am afraid of people who cannot cry Tears left unshed turn to poison in the ducts Ask the next soldier you see enjoying a massacre if this is not so. People who do not cry are victims of soul mutilation paid for in Marlboros and trucks. Resist. Violence does not work except for the man who pays your salary Who knows if you could still weep you would not take the job. |
