Just as despair can come to one only
from other human beings,
hope, too, can be given to one
only by other human beings.

Everyone hears what you
have to day. Friends listen to
what you say. Best friends
listen to what you don't say.

poem by Edgar A Guest
The Struggle
Life is a struggle for peace,
A longing for rest,
A hope for the battles to cease,
A dream for the best;
And he is not living who stays
Contented with things,
Unconcerned with the work of the days
And all that it brings.
He is dead who sees nothing to change,
No wrong to make right;
Who travels no new way or strange
In search of the light;
Who never sets out for a goal
That he sees from afar
But contents his indifferent soul
With things as they are.
Life isn't rest --- it is toil;
It is building a dream;
It is tilling a parcel of soil
Or bridging a stream;
It's pursuing the light of a star
That but dimly we see,
And in wresting from things as they are
The joy that should be.

I don't wait for moods.
You accomplish nothing if you do that.
Your mind must know it has got
to get down to earth.

When we do the best we can,
we never know what miracle
is wrought in our life, or in
the life of another.

quote by George Kneller
CREATIVITY, as has been said,
consists largely of REARRANGING
what we do KNOW in order to find out
what we do not know. Hence, to
think CREATIVELY, we must be able
to look afresh at what we normally
take for granted.

Once we DISCOVER ho to appreciate the timeless VALUES in our daily EXPERIENCES, we can enjoy the best things in LIFE.
quote by James Allen
Cherish your VISIONS;
cherish your IDEALS;
cherish the music
that stirs in your heart,
the BEAUTY that forms in your MIND,
the LOVELINESS that drapes your
purest THOUGHTS........
if you but remain true to them,
your world will at last be built.

another Thomas Kinade quote
It's the highest CALLING any of us have in life: making the WORLD a little BRIGHTER because of the way we paint our DAYS and HOURS and MONTHS and YEARS.
