"Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad." - Henry Wordsworth Longfellow
|
Watch your thoughts, they become your words Watch your words, they become your actions Watch your actions, they become your habits Watch your habits, they become your character Watch your character, it becomes your destiny.

When you come to the edge of all the light you know, and are about to step off into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing one of two things will happen: There will be something solid to stand on, or you will be taught how to fly.
Barbara J. Winter |
If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place.

The obstacle is the path. -- Zen proverb
|
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. If what we are now has been the result of our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.
Swami Vivekananda |
Start every day off with a smile and get it over with.
I cook with wine, sometimes I even add it to the food. If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Then quit. There's no point in being a damn fool about it. Children should neither be seen or heard from - ever again. I am free of all prejudices. I hate every one equally. I like children – fried. All quotes by W.C. Fields |

I always start writing with a clean piece of paper and a dirty mind. :coffee:

The great object of life is sensation, to feel that we exist, even though in pain. -- Lord Byron |

All I'm trying to do is survive and make good out of the dirty, nasty, unbelievable lifestyle that they gave me.

“Oh soul,
you worry too much. You have seen your own strength. You have seen your own beauty. You have seen your golden wings. Of anything less, why do you worry? You are in truth the soul, of the soul, of the soul.” gayatri" - Jalal ad-Din Rumi quote |
“All day I think about it, then at night I say it. Where did I come from, and what am I supposed to be doing? I have no idea. My soul is from elsewhere, I'm sure of that, and I intend to end up there.” - Rumi

“He is like a man using a candle to look for the sun”-Jalal ad-Din Rumi quote |
Whenever I experience something beautiful, I am with Soul.
That moment of inward breath, that pause and awareness of "how beautiful this is" is a prayer of appreciation, a moment of gratitude in which I behold beauty and am one with it. Jean Shinoda Bolen |
The kind of beauty I want most is
the hard-to-get kind that comes from within -- strength, courage, dignity. Ruby Dee |
One has to abandon altogether the search for security, and reach
out to the risk of living with both arms. One has to embrace the world like a lover. One has to accept pain as a condition of existence. One has to court doubt and darkness as the cost of knowing. One needs a will stubborn in conflict, but apt always to total acceptance of every consequence of living and dying. Morris L. West |
Joy is what we are, not what we must get. Joy is the
realization that all we want or need in life has been etched into our souls. Joy helps us see not what we are "going through," but what we are "growing to"--a greater sense of understanding, accomplishment, and enlightenment. Joy reveals to us the calm at the end of the storm, the peace that surpasses the momentary happiness of pleasure. If we keep our minds centered on joy, joy becomes a state of mind. Iyanla Vanzant |
The heart is the temple wherein all truth resides. -- Kahlil Gibran

A friend is one of the nicest things you can have, and one of the best things you can be. ~Douglas Pagels
