Lovers embrace that which is between them

just as you have always accepted
that seasons pass over your fields
and you would watch with serenity
through the winters of your grief.

Though his ways are hard and steep.

and takes naught but from itself.
Love possesses not
nor would it be possessed;
For love is sufficient unto love.

Your pain is the breaking of the shell
that encloses your understanding.

It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.

When you part from your friend, you grieve not;
For that which you love most in him may be
clearer in his absence,
as the mountain to the climber
is clearer from the plain.

kneel in your temple, pray in your church.
For you and I are sons of one religion,
and it is the Spirit.

Time has been transformed, and we have changed;
it has advanced and set us in motion;

inspiring us with bewilderment and exhilaration.

never an opportunity.

that encloses your understanding.
Much of your pain is self-chosen.
It is the bitter potion by which the

Therefore trust the physician, and drink
his remedy in silence and tranquility.
- Khalil Gibran

LOVE LETTERS TO YOURSELF
This is taken from a love letter (a gentle reminder)
I wrote to myself recently.
Live in your joy today.
Be authentic. Love yourself. First.
Love others from your own abundance.
Life Changes. Circumstances change.
Sometimes you try to fit your old way
of being into new circumstances
rather than becoming new yourself.
Embrace transformation as an opportunity.
And keep on writing love letters to yourself.
- Mary Anne Radmacher

I offer gentle understanding to myself.
I position myself in love, not fear.
I look behind me with forgiveness.
I look forward with festive anticipation.
I embrace this holy moment and assert,
"Now. This moment is the moment to love,
the moment to serve, the moment to seize
the legacy instead of the small.
Now. Now I will live large, love boldly,
reach to the edges of my unfurled heart and fully enrolled hope.
- Mary Anne Radmacher

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.
Attitude to me is more important than facts.
It is more important than the past, than education, than money,
than circumstances, than failures, than success,
than what other people think or say or do.
It is more important than appearance, gift, or skill.
It will make or break a company ... a church ... a home.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day
regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day.
We cannot change our past ...
we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way.
We cannot change the inevitable.
The only thing we can do is play on the string we have,
and that is our attitude.
I am convinced that life is 10 percent what happens to me
and 90 percent how I react to it.
And so it is with you ...
we are in charge of our attitudes.
- Charles Swindoll

Self-respect is often mistaken for arrogance
when in reality it is the opposite.
When we can recognize all our good qualities
as well as or faults with neutrality,
we can start to appreciate ourselves
as we would a dear friend
and experience the comfortable inner glow of respect.
To embrace the journey towards our full potential
we need to become our own loving teacher and coach.
Spurring ourselves on to become better human beings,
we develop true regard for ourselves,
and our life will become sacred.
- Osho

The difference between stupidity and genius

Life is a constant oscillation

The difference between school and life?
In school, you're taught a lesson and then given a test.
In life, you're given a test that teaches you a lesson.

Strike an average between what a woman thinks of her husband
a month before she marries him

- H. L. Mencken

Early in life I had to choose between honest arrogance
and hypocritical humility.
I chose the former and have seen no reason to change.

The jump is so frightening
between where I am,
and where I want to be.
Because of all I may become,
I will close my eyes and leap.

and proving that there is no need to do so,

between truth and repose.

We have nearly complete misunderstanding between
people of different faiths in Lake Wobegon,
and that's probably one reason why we get along so very well.
It's when you are trying to convince another person to think
the same way that you do that there is
friction and trouble between people.
But when you feel that the other person is
dumber than dirt, too dumb for words -
why waste your breath - you get along pretty well.
There's no bond between people that's quite so strong as
when people each feel slightly superior towards the other one.
- Garrison Keillor

Suspended between earth and sky,
my humanity draws from both,

The substantial is no more and no less
than the ephemeral - merely different.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
