Breaking Free

We can raise our sights high when we're willing to break free from being conformists who live a conventional life simply because we are too afraid to express our uniqueness. ~Alexandra Stoddard


We need creativity in order to break free from the temporary structures that have been set up by a particular sequence of experience. ~Edward de Bono

Grateful Thoughts

It is just that we should be grateful, not only
to those with whose views we may agree, but also 
to those who have expressed more superficial views; for these also contributed something, by developing before us the powers of thought. ~Aristotle


I am grateful for what I am and have. My
thanksgiving is perpetual. ~Henry David Thoreau

Understanding Challenges

Our uniqueness, our individuality, and our
life experience molds us into fascinating
beings. I hope we can embrace that. I pray
we may all challenge ourselves to delve into
the deepest resources of our hearts to cultivate an atmosphere of understanding,
acceptance, tolerance, and compassion. We
are all in this life together. ~Linda Thompson


Acceptance doesn't mean resignation; it means understanding that something is what it is and that there's got to be a way through it. ~Michael J. Fox

Life is a Song...Sing It

The good life is one inspired by love 
and guided by knowledge. ~Bertrand Russell

dream...realize it. Life is a sacrifice...offer
it. Life is love...enjoy it. ~Sai Baba

Gracious Flame

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


Gratitude is the sign of noble souls. ~Aesop






Finding Our Capabilities

Our work is the presentation of our
capabilities. ~Edward Gibbon


If human beings are perceived as potentials
rather than problems, as possessing
strengths instead of weaknesses, as
unlimited rather that dull and unresponsive,
then they thrive and grow to their
capabilities. ~Barbara Bush

Autumn Acts

Thankfulness is the beginning of gratitude.
Gratitude is the completion of thankfulness.
Thankfulness may consist merely of words.
Gratitude is shown in acts. ~Henri Frederic Amiel


My sorrow, when she's here with me, 
thinks these days of autumn rain are
beautiful as days can be; she loves the bare,
the withered tree; she walks the sodden
pasture lane. ~Robert Frost

Overcoming the Impossibilites

Permanence, perseverance and persistence
in spite of all obstacles, discouragements,
and impossibilities: It is this, that in all things distinguishes the strong soul 
from the weak. ~Thomas Carlyle

Time flies over us, but leaves its shadow
behind. ~Nathaniel Hawthorne
