Friendship isn't about whom you have known the longest... It's about who came, and never left your side...

Love your enemies just in case your friends turn out to be a bunch of bastards.

Of course, telling the difference can be difficult...

Desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.

As far as possible without surrender
be on good terms with all persons.

Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons,
they are vexations to the spirit.

If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself.
Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment
it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be,
and whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.

With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.

Max Ehrmann, Desiderata, Copyright 1952.


I'm glad that I found this again. I put a copy of it in my Senior Memory book more years ago than I will allow myself to remember. The wisdom there is still relevant.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
-- Marianne Williamson

I expect to pass through this world but once; any good thing therefore that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now; let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.

Another of my favorites...

Bladey just sent me this. It has struck a cord with both of us this morning.

This quote is something I encountered years ago. I no longer remember how or where. It is very appropriate right now given how things are going with me.


Change is inevitable.
Adapt or die.

Three things cannot long be hidden the sun, the moon, and the truth.

And when the truth does come out, it tends to get messy for the liars. Very messy..

I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.

And ye shall know the truth,and the truth shall make you free.

John VII

And truth cannot be hidden for long when there is someone determined to uncover it. Liars tend to underestimate the tenacity of someone who is after the truth of a matter.

    If you do not tell the truth about yourself you cannot tell it about other people.

Virginia Wolfe:


And by the same token, if you lie about yourself, you will lie about others.

"I STILL LIVE!!"

John Carter, Warlord of Mars
This quote was uttered by John Carter at least once (usually right after the Universe had made a Herculean effort to kill him!  Smiley ) in every one of the "Mars/Barsoom" books written by Edgar Rice Burroughs in which the Warlord had a prominent part.  I can appreciate the sentiment....

"Aye, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God.
But let there be spaces in your togetherness,
And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
Love one another but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. "
~ Khalil Gibran (1883-1931)


Found this, liked it and here it is.
This is how it is with Skywise and me. We love but we are not "bound" by it. It is difficult to explain but a very safe way to love. We aren't joined at the hip but when I need him, he's there and when he needs me, I'm there. Our love does not suffocate us. It makes us free.

Life's too short for mediocre sex.


I got that one from Black Rose and I gotta admit I share the sentiment. Can't tell you where she got the quote. Sorry. Smiley

Love withers under constraint; its very essence is liberty.
It is compatible neither with obedience, jealousy nor fear.
It is there most pure, perfect, and unlimited when
its votaries live in confidence, equality and unreserve.

Amen.

I never speak a lie, and I never tell the truth.  I guarantee, though, everything I say is exactly what I want you to hear.
