If we face our unpleasant feelings with care, affection, and nonviolence,
we can transform them into a kind of energy
that is healthy and has the capacity to nourish us. By the
work of mindful observation, our unpleasant feelings can
illuminate so much for us, offering us insight
and understanding into ourselves and society.

Thich Nhat Hanh

Love is the most dunderheaded of all the passions; it never will listen to reason. The very rudiments of logic are unknown to it. 'Love has no wherefore,' says one of the Latin poets." Edward Bulwer-Lytton; Kenelm Chillingly; 1873.

The life of every man is a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another, and his humblest hour is when he compares the volume as it is with what he vowed to make it. -J.M. Barrie, novelist and playwright (1860-1937)

One is content if one can find
happiness in simple pleasures.

Thomas Malloy

Spirit Dancer · 11-16-2010, 10:33 AM

The fountain of contentment must spring up in the mind, and they
who have so little knowledge of human nature as to seek happiness
by changing anything but their own disposition, will waste their
lives in fruitless efforts and multiply the grief they propose to remove.
Samuel Johnson
