"To Speak or NOT to Speak"
If it is not truthful and not helpful don't say it
If it is Truthful and not helpful don't say it.
If it is Not truthful and helpful don't say it
If it is both Truthful and Helpful ...Wait for the right time"

I'm not single, i'm romantically challenged.

"An unusual amount of common sense is something called wisdom" - Author Unknown

"Nothing ranks a man so quickly as his skill in selecting things that are really worthwhile. Every day brings the necessity of keen discrimmination. Not always is it a choice between good and bad, but between good and best." - A.P. Gouthey

Some days all it takes is a gentle breeze through the car window that carries the scent of lilacs and strokes the side of My face to remind Me what a gift life is.

Fighting to have your way does not increase your peace. Fighting others about their ways does not increase your peace. Refusing to acknowledge when you have made a mistake does not increase your peace. Going to extraordinary lengths to avoid making a mistake does not increase your peace.

Trusting that you are always doing the very best you can will and does increase your peace.

~~Iyanla Vanzant

You are here:
To gain character as you lose ego
To gain integrity as you lose dishonesty
To gain strength as you lose fear
To gain compassion as you lose disap-pointment
To gain discipline as you lose willfullness
To gain equality as you lose separation
To gain appreciation as you lose resentment
To gain enthusiasm as you lose hostility
To gain tenderness as you lose rigidity
To gain boldness as you lose bitterness
To gain generosity as you lose selfishness
To gain optimism as you lose inadequacy
To gain excitement as you lose embarrassment
To gain gratitude as you lose greed
To gain love as you lose ignorance

by E. E. Cummings

may my heart always be open to little
birds who are the secrets of living
whatever they sing is better than to know
and if men should not hear them men are old

may my mind stroll about hungry
and fearless and thirsty and supple
for even if it's sunday may i be wrong
for whenever men are right they are not young

and may myself do nothing usefully
and love yourself so more than truly
there's never been quite such a fool who could fail
pulling all the sky over him with one smile
