Thought for the day

"Be there for others, but never leave yourself behind."

~ Dodinsky ~

Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail.

~ Ralph Waldo Emerson ~

Why do parents insist on telling us to not play with your food when they were the ones convincing us it was an airplane when we were two? I mean, come on now.

~ A quote form Naught Corner ~

Even death is not to be feared by one who has lived wisely.


~Buddha

A difficult time can be more readily endured if we retain the conviction that our existence holds a purpose, a cause to pursue, a person to love, a goal to achieve.

-John Maxwell

”If we grew our own food,
we wouldn’t waste a third of it as we do today.
If we made our own tables and chairs,
we wouldn’t throw them out
the moment we changed the interior decor.
If we had to clean our own drinking water,
we probably wouldn’t contaminate it.”

Mark Boyle

Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.


~Buddha

Wise are those who look at others with the same generosity
they offer themselves, and who look at themselves with
the same critical eye they have for others.

~Morris West

We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.


~Buddha

Before you flare up at another's faults,
better take time to count to ten -- ten of your own!

~Frank A. Clark
