The most important thing I have learned over the years is the difference between taking one's work seriously and taking one's self seriously. The first is imperative, and the second disastrous.
-- Margaret Fontey
After receiving grace of God, one can never be the same again, never look at life again in the old way... our thoughts are enlivened, our life is inspired with enthusiasm and energy, and we live daily in the joyous knowledge that everything is all right...
When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.
Helen Keller
(1880-1968, American Writer)
Bravery is the capacity to perform properly even when scared half to death.
General Omar Bradley
(1893-1983, World War II Hero)
It is when we silence the chattering of our mind that we can truly hear what is in our heart and find the still, clear purity that lies within the soul. Spiritual love carries us into the silence of our original state of being. This silence contains the power to create harmony in all relationships and the sweetness to sustain them. And it is when we are silent that we can let God into our heart and mind, filling us with peace, love and power.
The highest reward for a person's toil is not what they get for it, but what they become by it.
John Ruskin
(1819-1900, British Artist and Author)
When we combine the power of self-belief with pure motives there is very little we cannot achieve. Using this power wisely to bring benefit to everyone in our lives, we can rest assured that everything we need will steadily flow our way.

It is very easy to create unity and make others a part of unity - if we can only pay special attention to one aspect - accumulate the power of truth. The power of truth alone can destroy the number one enemy of unity - ego. With ego out of the way, it is easy to create an atmosphere of harmony. The greatness of truth is the ability to come together with love, and accept each other's different ideas with love.
When I recognize the value of my own time there is a natural regard for the time of others. Arriving on time for an engagement is a simple way of demonstrating respect. A little attention reduces tension and life flows with the rhythm of each day.

The indispensable first step to getting the things you want in this life is this: Decide what you want.

When what you have is not enough to meet your need it's called a seed.

"Love and Forgiveness is the most important factor in any kind of relationship."
