    At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person.
    Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.

    --Albert Schweitzer--

    Happiness always looks small while you hold it in your hands, but let it go, and you learn at once how big and precious it is.

    As life goes on it becomes tiring to keep up the character you invented for yourself, and so you relapse into individuality and become more like yourself every day. This is sometimes disconcerting for those around you, but a great relief to the person concerned...Agatha Christie

    Don't sing of Yesterday
    Yesterday is gone
    Tomorrow isn't written
    Make Today your song!



    Beauty, love, laughter and delight are imperishable memories, but all that is important about hardship is that it passes on.......

    THE DAILY MOTIVATOR
    Tuesday, June 7, 2005

    This is it
    +++++++++++++++++++

    This is the day that you are alive. This is the moment that
    you are in.

    All your hopes and dreams are real right now. All your
    possibilities are ready to be lived.

    Everything you've ever done has led you to this point. You
    are more fully alive, aware, experienced and prepared than
    you have ever been.

    What matters is not how old or how young you may think you
    are. What matters is making the most of this moment you now
    have.

    What matters is not how much or how little you may think you
    have, how fairly or unfairly you may think life has treated
    you. What matters is that you make the most of who you are.

    This is it. This is your moment to fill with the best you
    can imagine.

    Live it with love, with purpose and joy.

    Ralph Marston

    "Youth is not a time of life;it is a state of mind;it is not a matter of rosy cheeks,red lips and supple knees;it is a matter of the will,a quality of the imagination,a vigour of the emotions;it is the freshness of the deep springs of life."...Samuel Ullman's

    Anything that is given can be at once taken away.
    We have to learn never to expect anything, and when it comes
    it’s no more than a gift on loan.

    All problems become smaller if you don’t dodge them but confront them. Touch a thistle timidly, and it pricks you; grasp it boldly, and its spines crumble.

    by Thich Nhat Hanh

    Waking up this morning, I smile
    Twenty-four brand new hours are before me
    I vow to live fully in each moment
    and to look at all beings with eyes of compassion

    "Every now and again take a good look at something not made with hands - a mountain, a star, the turn of a stream. There will come to you wisdom and patience and solace and, above all, the assurance that you are not alone in the world." Sidney Lovett

    There is an old adage: "When you're a teacher, by your pupils you'll be taught." I read a more recent story by Gervase Phinn, a Yorkshire schools inspector and author, who tells of an interesting conversation with an eleven-year-old boy in the Dales, a keen reader who solemnly said, "Hold a book in your hand, and you're a pilgrim at the gates of a new city."
    A surprising thing for a young lad to say but he had,in fact, learned this Hebrew proverb from his grandfather, a preacher!!!!!!
