    There is in every true woman's heart a spark of heavenly fire, which lies dormant in the broad daylight of prosperity; but which kindles up, and beams and blazes in the dark hour of adversity.

    St. Patrick's Day is an

    enchanted time -- a day

    to begin transforming

    winter's dreams into

    summer's magic.

    It is good to remember that the

    tea kettle, although up to its neck in

    hot water, continues to sing.

    may the tide

    that is entering

    even now



    the lip of

    our understanding

    carry you out



    beyond

    the

    face

    of

    fear

    --Lucille Clifton







    Today a new sun rises for me;

    everything lives,

    everything is animated,

    everything seems to speak to me

    of my passion,

    everything invites me to cherish it.

    --Anne de Lenclos

    you had aimed at an object on a

    May our heart's garden
    of awakening
    bloom with hundreds of flowers.Thich Nhat Hanh




    Of all the wonderful things
    in the wonderful universe of God,
    nothing seems to me more surprising
    than the planting of a seed
    in the blank earth
    and the result thereof.Julie Moir Messervy

    On the first day of spring,
    I dig my fingers deep into the soft earth.
    I can feel its energy, and my spirits soar." -Helen Hayes

    Whether sixty or sixteen,
    there is in every
    human being's heart the lure of wonder,

    the unfailing child-like appetite
    of what's next,
    and the joy of the game of living.

    In the center of your heart
    and my heart there is a wireless station;
    so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long are you young. ~ Samuel Ullman ~


    A man ninety years old was asked to what he attributed his longevity. I reckon, he said, with a twinkle in his eye, it's because most nights I went to bed and slept when I should have sat up and worried. ~ Dorothea Kent ~

    ]"People usually consider
    walking on water or
    in thin air a miracle.

    But I think the real miracle
    is not to walk either on water
    or in thin air,
    but to walk on earth.

    Every day we are engaged
    in a miracle which we don't recognize:
    a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black, curious eyes of a child -- our own two eyes. All is a miracle."

    -- Thich Nhat Hanh


    May white light
    and positive energy
    follow your footsteps

    From within or from behind, a light shines through us
    upon things and makes us aware that we are nothing,
    but the light is all.

    Don't wallow in the darkness.

    Add to the light. Be positive. Be happy.

    Be genuinely joyful. You can do it

    whenever you choose and when you do

    you'll truly make the world a better place.

    No snowflake ever falls

    ... joy and sorrow are inseparable. . . together they come and when one sits alone with you . . . remember that the other is asleep upon your bed.
