Love is the ability and willingness to allow those that you care for to be what they chose for themselves without any insistence that they satisfy you ~ Wayne Dyer |
I said: what about my eyes?
God said: Keep them on the road. I said: what about my passion? God said: Keep it burning. I said: what about my heart? God said: Tell me what you hold inside it? I said: pain and sorrow? He said: ..stay with it. The wound is the place where the Light enters you. ~ Rumi |
The angels can see the positive results of your prayers, and they want you to have patience and stay optimistic while the final details are being worked out in Heaven. This is an urgent call from the angels to “keep the faith”!
- Doreen Virtue |
As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.
--Henry David Thoreau |
Actions speak louder than words, but not nearly as often. -Mark Twain

“I don't care where I come, or what has happened in the past. We make each other happy. We could have a happily ever after.”― Amanda Hocking
“I been watchin' you, workin day and night, slavin so hard you barely have time to catch your breath. People do that for two reasons. Either they are crazy, or trying to forget.” ― Nicholas Sparks “Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear” ― Bon Jovi |
Blue Van Meer, Special Topics in Calamity Physics.
Implacable self-possession can be attained by all, not by pretending to look absorbed in what's clearly a blank spiral notebook;
not by trying to convince yourself you're an undiscovered rock star, movie star, top model, tycoon, Bond, Bond Girl, Queen Elizabeth, Elizabeth Bennett or Eliza Doolittle at the Ambassador's Ball; not by imagining you're a long lost member of the Vanderbilt family, nor by tilting up your chin fifteen to forty-five degrees and pretending to be Grace Kelly in her prime. These methods work in theory, but in practice they slip away, so one is left hideously naked with nothing but the stained sheet of self-confidence around one's feet. Instead, stately dignity can be possessed by all, in two ways: 1. Diverting the mind with a book or play. 2. Reciting Keats. |
Aww, the poor thing...
"I wore this hot bralet with lots of straps in the back for my girlfriend's birthday, thinking she'd be pumped. But she couldn't figure out how to get it off, and instead, she got all flustered and asked, "What is this, like a chastity bra?"
~Brittany |
The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.
--Henry David Thoreau |
See everything; overlook a great deal; correct a little. ~Pope John XXIII

Whatever games are played with us, we must play no games with ourselves, but deal in our privacy with the last honesty and truth.
--Ralph Waldo Emerson |
Thinking about Mother Teresa today...
If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.
~Mother Teresa If you judge people, you have no time to love them. ~Mother Teresa The miracle is not that we do this work, but that we are happy to do it. ~Mother Teresa The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted. ~Mother Teresa |
“Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.”― Napoleon Hill
“Don't confuse poor decision-making with destiny. Own your mistakes. And learn from them, so you don't make the same one twice. ” ― Steve Maraboli " Get even with people...but not those who have hurt you, forget them, instead get even with those who have helped you.” ― Steve Maraboli |
Love itself describes its own perfection.
Be speechless and listen. Rumi |
Stop holding onto the past. Release your regrets about whatever you may have done or failed to do that turned out poorly. Forgive others for whatever they may have done or failed to do that caused you harm. Declare today a new beginning. Let go of the past and move on with creating a joyful new future for yourself.
~Jonathan L. Huie |
Don't eat anything your great grandmother wouldn't recognize as food. -- Michael Pollan

The sort of bite only
hot water jaws give, Stinging just the way I like it, Head thrown back throat exposed, wide mouth receives searing sacrament My skin’s sins drained, Ablution absolution. ~Fatale |
Vegetables are a must on a diet. I suggest carrot cake, zucchini bread, and pumpkin pie.

― Jamine Isabel E. Uy “And may be that was love. Being so vulnerable and allowing someone else in so far they could hurt you, but they also give you everything.” ― Christine Feehan, Water Bound “Only if you are possible, everything will be possible.” ― Santosh Kalwar, Quote Me Everyday |
Quote:
|
To the world you may be one person,
but to one person you may be the world. ~Bill Wilson |
To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget.
- Arundhati Roy |
Stop acting so small. You are the universe in divine motion. ~ Rumi

"Sometimes the little times you don't think are anything while they're happening turn out to be what marks a whole period of your life."
— Andy Warhol |
This poem makes me sigh every time I read it... I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart) I am never without it (anywhere I go you go,my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing,my darling) I fear no fate (for you are my fate,my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world,my true) and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you here is the deepest secret nobody knows (here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide) and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart) — E.E. Cummings |

Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending. ~Attributed to Carl Bard

There is nothing lost or wasted in this life.
The Bhagavad Gita |
"We don't love others when we find them beautiful,
we find others beautiful when we love them." Josei Toda |

"We should laugh, really live, and love. We should want what we have, do what we can, and be who we are." Reverend Forrest Church |
“But love is always new. Regardless of whether we love once, twice, or a dozen times in our life, we always face a brand-new situation. Love can consign us to hell or to paradise, but it always takes us somewhere. We simply have to accept it, because it is what nourishes our existence. If we reject it, we die of hunger, because we lack the courage to stretch out a hand and pluck the fruit from the branches of the tree of life. We have to take love where we find it, even if that means hours, days, weeks of disappointment and sadness.
The moment we begin to seek love, love begins to seek us. And to save us.” ― Paulo Coelho, By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept |
It doesn’t interest me where or what or with whom you have studied. I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away. I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments.
- Oriah Mountain Dreamer |
We can always find something to be thankful for, and there may be reasons why we ought to be thankful for even those dispensations which appear dark and frowning. ~Albert Barnes
