Love never claims, it ever gives; love never suffers, never resents, never revenges itself.
Where there is love there is life; hatred leads to destruction. ~ Mahatma Gandhi ~ |

All our young lives we search for someone to love. Someone who makes us complete.... We choose partners and change partners. We dance to a song of heartbreak and hope. All the while wondering if somewhere, somehow, there's someone perfect who might be searching for us. ~ Kevin Arnold ~

The Waking - Theodore Roethke
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. I feel my fate in what I cannot fear. I learn by going where I have to go. We think by feeling. What is there to know? I hear my being dance from ear to ear. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. Of those so close beside me, which are you? God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there, And learn by going where I have to go. Light takes the Tree; but who can tell us how? The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair; I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. Great Nature has another thing to do To you and me, so take the lively air, And, lovely, learn by going where to go. This shaking keeps me steady. I should know. What falls away is always. And is near. I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow. I learn by going where I have to go. |
"Dont start again, I have to go to work!!!" :girldevil:

If you do not learn from your mistakes, you might just as well not make them.

Love me or hate me, both are in my favor. If you love me, I'll always be in your heart. If you hate me, I'll always be in your mind. |

“We can never judge the lives of others, because each person knows only their own pain and renunciation. It's one thing to feel that you are on the right path, but it's another to think that yours is the only path.”
Paulo Coelho quote |
A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for.
- William Shedd |
Patience is not passive; on the contrary, it is active; it is concentrated strength.

She is a friend of mind. She gather me, man. The pieces I am, she gather them and give them back to me in all the right order. It's good, you know, when you got a woman who is a friend of your mind.

He has not known life, he who has not known love; and his destiny he is yet to find.
~ Phumza Mafela ~ |
When you ignore your soul's destiny, when you get caught up in
your own self-interests and forget to care for others, you will not feel "right." Instead, you will feel empty and unfulfilled. During these times, you are neglecting your soul-- you are depriving it of nourishment. . . . seek something outside your nine-to-five job as an additional source of fulfillment and as a way to feel the joy of helping others. You can do any number of things to fulfill this goal--volunteer at a community hotline, coach a Little League team, donate your time to a public school, visit the sick. Whatever you choose, you will gain a sense that you are giving of yourself, that you are sharing yourself with the world, that you are fulfilling the destiny of your soul. Rabbi Harold Kushner |
Some say the world will end in fire, Some say in ice. From what I've tasted of desire I hold with those who favor fire. But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate To say that for destruction ice Is also great And would suffice. Robert Frost |
"If you’re one in a million, there will be one more person exactly like you- just give it three weeks." - anon. “Calamities are of two kinds: misfortunes to ourselves, and good fortune to others.” - Ambrose Bierce |

The year's at the spring
And day's at the morn; Morning's at seven; The hillside's dew-pearled; The lark's on the wing; The snail's on the thorn; God's in His heaven - All's right with the world! ~Robert Browning http://lovetoknit.files.wordpress.co...pg?w=321&h=220 |
Spring is not the best of seasons.
Cold and flu are two good reasons; wind and rain and other sorrow, warm today and cold tomorrow. ~Author Unknown http://texana.texascooking.com/gifs/blue/blue2.jpg Texas bluebonnets |
