"Where is Obama?"- The Freedom Fighters screamed in Libya as they lay dying.
|
Quote:
The favorite proverb of Libyan Mohammed Nabous. I've been following him since early February. He was shot and killed seven days ago by Gadhafi's forces. He was a 27 year old man armed with nothing but an iPhone and a laptop and was working tirelessly to get the plight of the freedom fighters on film and broadcast it to the world. For God's sake, ask him to stop killing us. We just want to live free. We want our human rights, our basic human rights. -Mohammed Nabous |
For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul.
~Judy Garland |
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

It was a million tiny little things that,
when you added them all up, they meant we were supposed to be together ... and I knew it. I knew it the very first time I touched her. It was like coming home. .. only to no home I'd ever known ... ~ Sleepless in Seattle |
When one is freshly informed, has a serendipitous experience, one's mood is changed, one's heart is changed, That is why taking the time to see, hear, be present to new images and language that arise from new experiences, have the power to change one from one way to another. Clarissa Pinkola Estes Women Who Run With The Wolves |
“If there ever comes a day when we can't be together keep me in your heart, I'll stay there forever”

Hokusai Says
Hokusai says look carefully. He says pay attention, notice. He says keep looking, stay curious. He says there is no end to seeing ... He says everything is alive— Shells, buildings, people, fish Mountains, trees. Wood is alive. Water is alive. Everything has its own life. Everything lives inside us. He says live with the world inside you... It matters that you care. It matters that you feel. It matters that you notice. It matters that life lives through you... Look, feel, let life take you by the hand. Let life live through you. —Roger Keyes |

If you can break the wall of the self,

Education and Tao
those who pursue learning
acquire something day after day those who pursue the Tao lose something day after day Lao Zi we must study but not to the point that emphasis upon experience and meditation is lost. if we can combine intellect and direct experience with our meditative mind, then there will be no barrier to the wordless experience of reality. |
So, like a forgotten fire, a childhood can always flare up again within us.
~Gaston Bachelard |
The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.
~Jack Kerouac |
A gentleman is simply a patient wolf.

sometimes it's always 4 am
“We are well advised to keep on nodding terms with the people we used to be, whether we find them attractive company or not. Otherwise they turn up unannounced and surprise us, come hammering on the mind's door at 4am of a bad night and demand to know who deserted them, who betrayed them, who is going to make amends. We forget all too soon the things we thought we could never forget.” - Joan Didion |
Children ask better questions than adults. "May I have a cookie?" "Why is the sky blue?" and "What does a cow say?" are far more likely to elicit a cheerful response than "Where's your manuscript?" Why haven't you called?" and "Who's your lawyer?"
~Fran Lebowitz |
Just because everything is different doesn't mean anything has changed. ~Irene Peter

All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.

Dream on it. Let your mind take you to places you would like to go, and then think about it and plan it and celebrate the possibilities. And don't listen to anyone who doesn't know how to dream.

I am never wrong when it comes to my possibilities.

A cigarette is the perfect type of a perfect pleasure. It is exquisite, and it leaves one unsatisfied. What more can one want? - Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray |
The sky was the only constant factor in my life, which kept changing with the speed of light and lightening. - Yoko Ono |
It is not surprising that we need to do more. I mean, this is child abuse. There is always more to be done.
--Andrea Ingram Child abuse is a problem no one really talks about. Abuse and neglect is the number 1 cause of injury to children in the country. More children die of abuse or neglect than of natural causes. --Donna Miller |
"In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking, keep to the simple. In conflict, be fair and generous. In governing, don't try to control. In work, do what you enjoy. In family life, be completely present." -Tao Te Ching

Live now.
Start barefoot earlier in the spring and stay that way later in the fall. Go to more dances. Ride merry-go-rounds. Pick daisies. |
Friends will keep you sane, Love can fill your heart, A lover can warm your bed, But lonely is the soul without a mate.

If we could read the secret history of our enemies, we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility. -Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, poet (1807-1882)
