Life



Life can only be understood backwards, but can only be lived forwards. - Unknown

Difference

There is little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative. 
~ W. Clement Stone

Time

Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity. 
~Henry Van Dyke

Purpose

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

Learn to Become Still

Learn to become still. And to take your attention away from what you don't want, and all the emotional charge around it, and place your attention on what you wish to experience. - Michael Beckwith

Pass It On

Have you had a kindness shown?
Pass it on;
'Twas not given for thee alone,
Pass it on;
Let it travel down the years,
Let it wipe another's tears,
'Til in Heaven the deed appears -
Pass it on.
~Henry Burton, Pass It On

One Corner



There's only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self. - Aldous Huxley

Focus


If something you want is slow to come to you, it can be for only one reason. You are spending more time focused upon its absence than you are about its presence.- Abraham-Hicks

A Bit of Fragrance



A bit of fragrance always clings to the hand that gives roses. ~Chinese Proverb

Whispers of Truth



It is only when we silent the blaring sounds of our daily existence that we can finally hear the whispers of truth that life reveals to us, as it stands knocking on the doorsteps of our hearts. ~K.T. Jong

Power of Harmony



With an eye made quiet by the power of harmony, and the deep power of joy, we see into the life of things. ~ William Wordsworth
