A Work Of Art In Progress
Life is not always a
soft and effortless thing.
Blades of grass grow through concrete, fighting
their way to the sun
It is wisdom to know
others
It is enlightenment to know
ones self
Loa Tzu
The only thing that is
certain for us is change
To battle
change is to waste our time
The
battle can never be won
we have many
alternatives even more paths and an
infinity of dreams
Hope-full we are halfway
to where we want to go
hope-less we
are lost
To deny ourselves the
knowledge of even a single person is to
loose the central piece of the jigsaw
puzzle
Every choice we make has
it's consequencs.
Love never dies as long
as there is someone who remembers.
Great people are
ordinary people with extrordinary
amounts of determination.
When you have exhausted
all possibilities remember this: You
Haven't.
If it's going to be
it's up to me...
don't let a problem
become an excuse.
The problems encountered
in life can make you tender or tough.
They can make you better or
bitter...
It all depends on you
A ball is a circle,
no beginning,no end.
It keeps us together
Like our Circle of Friends
But the treasure inside for you to see
is the treasure of friendship
You've granted to me.
Today I pass the
friendship ball to you.
Pass it on to someone who is a
friend
dear and true...
Give people more than
they expect and do it cheerfully
When you say, "I love
you", mean it
believe in love at first
site
Love deeply and
passionately. You might get hurt but
it's the only way to
live life completely.
When you say, "I'm
sorry", look the person in the eye
Never laugh at anyone's
dreams. People who don't have dreams
don't have much.
When someone asks you a
question you don't want to answer, smile
and ask, Why do you want to know?
Remember that great love
and great achievements involve great
risk.
When you lose, don't
lose the lesson.
Remember the three R's:
Respect for self; Respect for others;
Responsibility for all your actions.
Don't let a little
dispute injure a great friendship.
When you realize you've
made a mistake, take immediate steps to
correct it.
Marry someone you love
to talk to. As you get older, their
conversational skills will be as
important as any other.
Open your arms to
change, but don't let go of your
values.
Silence is sometimes the
best answer
Live a good, honorable
life. Then when you get older and think
back, you'll get to enjoy it a second
time.
A loving atmosphere in
your home is so important. Do all you
can to create a tranquil harmonious
home
Spend some time with
yourself.
Share your knowledge.
It's a way to achieve immortality.
Be gentle with the
earth.
If you make a lot of
money, put it to use helping others
while you are living. That is wealth's
greatest satisfaction.
Not
getting what you want is sometimes a
stroke of luck.
The best
relationship is one where your love for
each other
is greater than your need for each
other.
Approach love and
cooking with reckless abandon.
Kindness in words
creates confidence.
Kindness in in thinking creates
profoundness.
Kindness in giving
creates love.
- Lao-tzu (604-531 B.C.
My Special List
I have a list of folks I know...
all written in a book,
And every now and then..
I go and take a look.
That is when I realize
these names... they are a part,
not of the book they're written
in...
but taken from the heart.
For each Name stands for someone...
who has crossed my path
sometime,
and in that meeting they have
become...
the reason and the rhyme.
Although it sounds fantastic...
for me to make this claim,
I really am composed...
of each remembered name.
Although you're not aware...
of any special link,
just knowing you has shaped my
life...
more than you could think.
So please don't think my greeting...
as just a mere routine,
your name was not...
forgotten in between.
For when I send a greeting...
that is addressed to you,
it is because you're on the list...
of folks I'm indebted to
So whether I
have known you...
for many days or few,
in some ways you have a part...
in shaping things I do.
I am but a total...
of many folks I've met,
you are a friend I would
prefer...
never to forget.
Thank you for being my friend.
The grand design has
given us two ears, two eyes, and but one
tongue, so we should hear and see more
than we speak.
Good examples are the
best words
The future belongs to
those who believe in the beauty of their
dreams
Very little is needed to
make a happy life.
You can always find the
light within your self if you will only
take the time to look
Without kindness there
is no joy
Strive to be
affectionate without being
passionate.
Strong without forgetting
how to be dependent and dependable.
Proud without losing sight of the
strength in being humble
Love each other
