“Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.” -Buddha

I'm so proud of my heart,
It's been used, hurt, cheated and broken, But it still works. |
The world is all gates, all opportunities, strings of tension waiting to be struck.
Ralph Waldo Emerson |

"No existe amor en paz. Siempre viene acompañado de agonías, éxtasis, alegrías intensas y tristezas profundas."~ Paulo Coelho

“When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.” -John Lennon

Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.

"Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in, therein to be content." -Helen Keller, 1902
We see what we choose to see. Helen Keller could not physically see with her eyes- and yet she could see with her heart, she could experience wonder. Her life, and the way she chose to live her life, is such an inspiration to us. There is wonder all around us, but do we choose to see it? -Lissa Coffey “Why you? Because there’s no one better. Why now? Because tomorrow isn’t soon enough.” — Donna Brazile |

“People are opportunities. The gift is in the interaction and the connection with another person, whether it lasts forever or not.” — Colleen Seifert

"Our lives are to be used and thus to be lived as fully as possible, and truly it seems that we are never so alive as when we concern ourselves with other people." ~ Harry Chapin

"The best thing to hold onto in life is each other." -Audrey Hepburn

"Thy word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against thee," ~ King David (Psalms 119:11) |
Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens. Jimi Hendrix
Paulo Coelho. Close some doors. Not because of pride, but because that no longer fits your life. |
Sometimes you have to forget how you feel and remember what you deserve.

Some Like Indians Endure ~ Paula Gunn Allen
i have it in my mind that dykes are like indians they're a lot like indians they used to live as a tribe they owned tribal land it was called the earth they were massacred lots of times they always came back like the grass like the clouds they got massacred again they thought caringsharing about the earth and each other was a good thing they rode horses and sang to the moon but i don't know about what was so longago and it's now that dykes make me think i'm with indians because they bear witness bitterly because they reach and hold because they live every day with despair laughing in cities and country places because earth hides them because they know the moon because they gather together enclosing and spit in the eye of death indian is an idea some people have of themselves dyke is an idea some women have of themselves the place where we live now is idea because whiteman took all the rest because father took all the rest but the idea which once you have it you can't be taken for somebody else and have nowhere to go like indians you can be stubborn the idea might move you on, ponydrag behind taking all your loves and children maybe downstream maybe behind the cliffs but it hangs there and idea like indians endures it might even take your whole village with it stone by stone or leave the stones to find more to build another village someplace else like indians dykes have fewer and fewer someplaces else to go so it gets important to know about ideas and to remember or uncover the past and how the people traveled all the while remembering the idea they had about who they were indians, like dykes do it all the time dykes know about dying and that everything belongs to the wind like indians they do terrible things to each other out of sheer cussedness out of forgetting out of despair so dykes are like indians because everybody is related to everybody in pain in terror in guilt in blood in shame in disappearance that never quite manages to be disappeared we never go away even if we're always leaving because the only home is each other they've occupied all the rest colonized it; an idea about ourselves is all we own and dykes remind me of indians like indians dykes are supposed to die out or forget or drink or shatter or go away to nowhere to remember what will happen if they don't they don't anyway even though the worst happens they remember and they stay because the moon remembers because so does the sun because the stars remember and the persistent stubborn grass of the earth |
