Anyone can kneel before you and say their submissive;
Submissiveness comes from the heart the core of who you are. |
On conformity...
You don't get harmony when everybody sings the same note. ~Doug Floyd
The reward for conformity was that everyone liked you except yourself. ~Rita Mae Brown, Venus Envy Nature made us individuals, as she did the flowers and the pebbles; but we are afraid to be peculiar, and so our society resembles a bag of marbles, or a string of mold candles. Why should we all dress after the same fashion? The frost never paints my windows twice alike. ~Lydia Maria Child Not all those who wander are lost. ~J.R.R. Tolkien Our wretched species is so made that those who walk on the well-trodden path always throw stones at those who are showing a new road. ~Voltaire The only man I know who behaves sensibly is my tailor; he takes my measurements anew each time he sees me. The rest go on with their old measurements and expect me to fit them. ~George Bernard Shaw The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself. ~Friedrich Nietzsche New opinions are always suspected, and usually opposed, without any other reason but because they are not already common. ~John Locke, An Essay Concerning Human Understanding If you don't control your mind, someone else will. ~John Allston In the moment of our creation we receive the stamp of our individuality; and much of life is spent in rubbing off or defacing the impression. ~Augustus William Hare and Julius Charles Hare, Guesses at Truth, by Two Brothers, 1827 When I was four years old they tried to test my IQ, they showed me this picture of three oranges and a pear. They asked me which one is different and does not belong, they taught me different was wrong. ~Ani Difranco |
"Kind looks, kind words, kind acts, and warm handshakes - these are secondary means of grace when [people] are in trouble and are fighting their unseen battles." -John Hall

"Other people's opinion of you does not have to become your reality."
Les Brown "Accept everything about yourself, I mean everything. You are you and that is the beginning and the end, no apologies, no regrets." Clark Moustakas "You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great." Zig Ziglar "Confidence comes not from always being right but from not fearing to be wrong." Peter Mcintyre |
"It is peculiar wisdom that alerts us to that moment in time. That moment when we know it is time for us to leave." ~ Unknown ~ |
"In our deepest moments of struggle, frustration, fear, and confusion, we are being called upon to reach in and touch our hearts. Then, we will know what to do, what to say, how to be. What is right is always in our deepest heart of hearts. It is from the deepest part of our hearts that we are capable of reaching out and touching another human being. It is, after all, one heart touching another heart." - Roberta Sage Hamilton |
"Sometimes humans beg for battles to be taken away from them, not realizing that only in struggling with shadows is the Light made manifest." - W. Michael Gear |
"By demanding results and accepting the responsibility for the failures and lacks in my own life, I gained knowingness. Today, I look back and find it hard to imagine the boy that I was. I still have mountains to climb, although I now see them as challenges. To live is to seek challenge - I would have it no other way" - Thomas D. Willhite |
The most sacred quote: "I AM GOD" uttered by human beings.

The way to overcome the angry person is with gentleness,
the evil person with goodness, the miser with generosity and the liar with truth. Indian Proverb |
Conviction is worthless unless it is converted into conduct.
Thomas Carlyle |
"Hope" is the thing with feathers-- That perches in the soul-- And sings the tunes without the words-- And never stops--at all. Emily Dickinson |
Minutes are worth more than money.
Spend them wisely. Thomas P. Murphy |
“We're never so vulnerable than when we trust someone - but paradoxically, if we cannot trust, neither can we find love or joy” Walter Anderson
"You cannot feel the pain of rejection by someone else if you have already revealed yourself to you and accepted all of you. In other words, if you truly know yourself and can love, forgive and accept yourself, then you either won’t attract someone who rejects you when you open up or you will know that this person is not the one for you. ...You will simply move forward to open the door to someone who loves and accepts you as you are. And don’t wait for someone else to accept you so that you can accept you." Patrick Wanis “Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness...” Neil Gaiman :candle: |
“The greater your capacity to love, the greater your capacity to feel the pain.”
bion... jennifer anniston said this... shes pretty smart as well as pretty sexy! |
How do you hold it together...
“Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.” Unknown
