    This is the first I've seen this thread and haven't had time to read through it yet. I posted this in another part of the board yesterday, but I'll post it here as well. I don't know if it's already in this thread, but I'm going to post it anyway.
    Hope

    Hope is the thing with feathers
    That perches in the soul
    And sings the song without the words
    And never stops -- at all

    And sweetest in the Gale is heard
    And sore must be the storm
    That could abash the little bird
    That kept so many warm-

    I've heard it in the chillest land
    And on the strangest sea
    Yet, never, in Extremity,
    It asked a crumb of Me.

    Emily Dickinson

    "Your friend is your needs answered.
    She is your field which you sow and love and reap with thanksgiving.
    For without words, in friendship, all throughts, all desires,
    all expectations are born and shared, with joy that is unacclaimed.
    For what is your friend that you should seek her with hours to kill?
    Seek her always with hours to live.
    For it is your friend to fill your need, but not your emptiness.

    --Kahil Gibran

    a world in us,

    a world not born

    until they arrive,



    and it is only by this meeting

    that a new world is born." --- Anais Nin

    Maybe you'll like this. It contains some lines which may be considered 'quotes' - but worth a look anyway.

    Be an angel to someone else whenever you can, as a way of thanking God for the help your angel has given you. ~Quoted in The Angels' Little Instruction Book by Eileen Elias Freeman, 1994

    The morning air is all awash with angels.

    You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, "I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along." . . . You must do the thing you think you cannot do.

    -Eleanor Roosevelt

    "Most of us miss out on life's big prizes. The Pulitzer, The Nobel, Oscars, Tonys, Emmys. But we're all eligible for life's small pleasures. A pat on the back. A kiss behind the ear. A four-pound bass. A full moon. An empty parking space. A crackling fire. A great meal. A glorious sunset. Hot soup. Cold beer."

    There are three enemies of personal
    peace, regret over yesterday's mistakes,
    anxiety over tomorrow's problems
    and ingratitude for today's blessing.

    One ship sails East,
    And another West,
    By the self-same winds that blow,
    Tis the set of the sails
    And not the gales,
    That tells the way we go.

    Like the winds of the sea
    Are the waves of time,
    As we journey along through life,
    Tis the set of the soul,
    That determines the goal,
    And not the calm or the strife.
    Ella Wheeler Wilcox

    may the sun
    bring you new energy by day,

    may the moon
    softly restore you by night,

    may the rain
    wash away your worries,

    may the breeze
    blow new strength into your being,

    may you walk
    gently through the world and know
    its beauty all the days of your life.

    You see,

    when weaving a blanket,

    an Indian woman leaves a flaw

    in the weaving of that blanket

    to let the soul out. ~Martha Graham





    As the wind blows you must set your sail.

    And don't ever forget...for even a day...how very Special you are!

    ~Colin McCarthy





    "Indian wisdom says our lives are rivers.



    We are born somewhere small and quiet and

    we move toward a place we cannot see, but only imagine.



    Along our journey, people and events flow into us, and

    we are created of everywhere and everyone we have passed.



    Each event, each person, changes us in some way.

    Even in times of drought we are still moving and growing,

    but it is during seasons of rain that we expand the most –

    when water flows from all directions, sweeping at terrifying speed,

    chasing against rocks, spilling over boundaries.



    These are painful times, but they enable us to carry burdens we could never have thought possible.

    Floods are painful, but they are necessary.

    They keep us clear and strong.

    They move our lives onto new paths."

    --Lisa Wingate









    The great thing in this world is not so much where we are,

    but in what direction we are moving.

    ~Oliver Wendell Holmes





    peace

    love

    and light

    to anyone reading this now
