“If you and I are having a single thought of violence or hatred against anyone in the world at this moment, we are contributing to the wounding of the world" - Deepak Chopra

He has been in My head all day.
 
“If you want to reach a state of bliss, then go beyond your ego and the internal dialogue. Make a decision to relinquish the need to control, the need to be approved, and the need to judge. Those are the three things the ego is doing all the time. It's very important to be aware of them every time they come up.” - Deepak Chopra

We are born for a higher destiny than that of earth; there is a realm where
the rainbow never fades, where the stars will be spread before us like islands
that slumber on the ocean, and where the beings that pass before us
like shadows will stay in our presence forever.

Edward Bulwer-Lytton

How come anything you buy will go on sale next week?

Humorists can never start to take themselves seriously. It's literary suicide.

I was terrible at straight items. When I wrote obituaries, my mother said the only thing I ever got them to do was die in alphabetical order.

I was too old for a paper route, too young for Social Security and too tired for an affair.

I will buy any creme, cosmetic, or elixir from a woman with a European accent.

I've exercised with women so thin that buzzards followed them to their cars.

If a man watches three football games in a row, he should be declared legally dead.

If you can't make it better, you can laugh at it.

In general my children refuse to eat anything that hasn't danced in television.

In two decades I've lost a total of 789 pounds. I should be hanging from a charm bracelet.

Get excited and enthusiastic about you own dream. This excitement is like a forest fire - you can smell it, taste it, and see it from a mile away.

~Dennis Waitley

At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person.
Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.

~Albert Schweitzer

“What do you first do when you learn to swim? You make mistakes, do you not? And what happens? You make other mistakes, and when you have made all the mistakes you possibly can without drowning - and some of them many times over - what do you find? That you can swim? Well - life is just the same as learning to swim! Do not be afraid of making mistakes, for there is no other way of learning how to live!” - Alfred Adler

Jerseyboi 04-09-2010 05:42 PM

Laugh when you can. Apology when you should, and let go of what you can’t change. Kiss slowly. Play hard. Forgive quickly. Take Chances. Give everything, and have no regrets. Life is too short to be anything but happy...you get what you give, so give good :) -

It is easy to see the fly on the other person's nose, while ignoring the horse on your own. -- Tibetan proverb

It's spring fever. That is what the name of it is. And when
you've got it, you want - oh, you don't quite know what it is you do want,
but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!

Mark Twain

“What need I fear of thee? But yet I'll make assurance double sure, and take a bond of fate: thou shalt not live; That I may tell pale-hearted fear it lies, And sleep in spite of thunder” - William Shakespeare

Spirit Dancer 04-10-2010 10:08 AM

I am optimistic and confident in all that I do. I affirm only the best
for myself and others. I am the creator of my life and my world. I meet
daily challenges gracefully and with complete confidence. I fill my mind
with positive, nurturing, and healing thoughts.

Alice Potter

“Whatever happened to anyone else could happen to you-and to me - And the end of my youth was the possible truth that it all happens randomly.”- Indigo Girls

Spirit Dancer 04-10-2010 10:11 AM

A buoyant and full-blooded soul has quick senses and
miscellaneous sympathies: it changes with the changing
world; and when not too much starved or thwarted by
circumstances, it finds all things vivid and comic. Life is
free play fundamentally and would like to be free play altogether.

George Santayana

JakeTulane 04-10-2010 10:12 AM

“Be still, sad heart, and cease repining; Behind the clouds the sun is shining; Thy fate is the common fate of all, Into each life some rain must fall, Some days must be dark and dreary.” - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Spirit Dancer 04-10-2010 10:14 AM

The true object of all human life is play. Earth is a task garden; heaven is a playground.

G. K. Chesterton

Spirit Dancer 04-10-2010 10:17 AM

In the confrontation between the stream and the rock, the stream always
wins--not through strength but by perseverance.

H. Jackson Brown

The heights by great ones reached and kept
Were not attained by sudden flight,
But they, while their companions slept,
Were toiling upward in the night.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Ms. Meander 04-10-2010 10:32 AM

You have been my friend. That in itself is a tremendous thing. I wove my webs for you because I liked you. After all, what's a life, anyway? We're born, we live a little while, we die. A spider's life can't help being something of a mess, with all this trapping and eating flies. By helping you, perhaps I was trying to lift up my life a trifle. Heaven knows anyone's life can stand a little of that.

~ E. B White, Charlotte: Charlotte's Web

Happiness is nothing more than good health and a bad memory.
:dogwalking:


~Albert Schweitzer




Diva 04-10-2010 11:08 AM

We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have.

~Frederick Keonig

Most of our faults are more pardonable than the means we use to conceal them.

Within the sound of silence,
A million words are heard.
If you but only listen with your intuition.

"We enjoy warmth because we have been cold. We appreciate light because we have been in darkness. By the same token, we can experience joy because we have known sadness." - David Weatherford

No te quiero sino porque te quiero
y de quererte a no quererte llego
y de esperarte cuando no te espero
pasa mi corazón del frío al fuego.

Te quiero sólo porque a ti te quiero,
te odio sin fin, y odiándote te ruego,
y la medida de mi amor viajero
es no verte y amarte como un ciego.

Tal vez consumirá la luz de Enero,
su rayo cruel, mi corazón entero,
robándome la llave del sosiego.

En esta historia sólo yo me muero
y moriré de amor porque te quiero,
porque te quiero, amor, a sangre y fuego.


Pablo Neruda ~ Sonnet LXVI

One of my favorite quotes Diva.

I do believe the translation should read: Tell me what company you keep and I'll tell you who you are. So true...

In my reading tonight...
 
Consider the trees which allow the birds to perch and fly away without either inviting them to stay or desiring them never to depart. If your heart can be like this, you will be near to the way.

Mister Bent 04-10-2010 10:53 PM

We find by losing. We hold fast
by letting go. We become something
new by ceasing to be something old.
This seems to be close to the heart
of that mystery.
- Frederick Buechner

To Laugh
Y.Daniil

It is more of a cry
My laugh fills only others
My mind,
My body,
My soul:
Empty
I long to laugh,
to laugh
and hold my soul

"No distance of place or lapse of time can lessen the friendship of those who are thoroughly persuaded of each other's worth." - Robert Shouthey

JakeTulane 04-11-2010 07:58 AM

"Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art, like the universe itself (for God did not need to create). It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things which give value to survival." - C.S. Lewis

JakeTulane 04-11-2010 08:00 AM

"Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead." - Louisa May Alcott
