Re：Quotes, thoughts and inspirational prayers. Date Posted：04/20/2013 8:19 PMCopy HTML Reply to Niceguy2 (04/20/2013 2:06 AM) Well Pam, according to John Burroughs quote which Foxy posted, here are some of the elements of a simple life. To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter... to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird's nest or a wildflower in spring - these are some of the rewards of the simple life. John Burroughs I thought perhaps it was you counting your money, Joe. LOL Ok, I'm outta here, Bud. Hehehehe... time to turn off this dang computer. |

Re：Quotes, thoughts and inspirational prayers. Date Posted：04/21/2013 3:23 PMCopy HTML I think all of the great stories in literature deal with loneliness. Sometimes it's by way of heartbreak, sometimes it's by way of injustice, sometimes it's by way of fate. There's an infinite number of ways to examine it. Tom Hanks

Re：Quotes, thoughts and inspirational prayers. Date Posted：04/22/2013 12:48 AMCopy HTML The very essence of literature is the war between emotion and intellect, between life and death. When literature becomes too intellectual - when it begins to ignore the passions, the emotions - it becomes sterile, silly, and actually without substance. Isaac Bashevis Singer

Re：Quotes, thoughts and inspirational prayers. Date Posted：04/22/2013 1:14 AMCopy HTML “If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and true enemies; succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; be honest and frank anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; do good anyway… You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway.” ― Mother Teresa |

Re：Quotes, thoughts and inspirational prayers. Date Posted：04/22/2013 1:38 AMCopy HTML “Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly, and listen to others, even the dull and ignorant; they too have their story. Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love – for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment is it perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you from misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labours and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.”

Re：Quotes, thoughts and inspirational prayers. Date Posted：04/23/2013 4:18 PMCopy HTML I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now? ~John Lennon

Re：Quotes, thoughts and inspirational prayers. Date Posted：04/23/2013 4:53 PMCopy HTML If we opened our minds to enjoyment, we might find tranquil pleasures spread about us on every side. We might live with the angels that visit us on every sunbeam, and sit with the fairies who wait on every flower. ~Samuel Smiles
