Character is doing the right thing when nobody's looking. There are too many people who think that the only thing that's right is to get by, and the only thing that's wrong is to get caught. ~J.C. Watts

I thank Thee first because I was never robbed before; second, because although they took my purse they did not take my life; third, because although they took my all, it was not much; and fourth because it was I who was robbed, and not I who robbed. ~Matthew Henry

An individual human existence should be like a river: small at first, narrowly contained within its banks, and rushing passionately past rocks and over waterfalls. Gradually the river grows wider, the banks recede, the waters flow more quietly, and in the end, without any visible break, they become merged in the sea, and painlessly lose their individual being. -Bertrand Russell, philosopher, mathematician, author, Nobel laureate (1872-1970)

From a friend

I Am A Mirror Reflection.

Today I know that life reflects back to me that which I am.
I am a mirror image of you and you are a mirror image of me.
Today I know that the Infinite in me is reflecting perfection on every level.
As I continue to surrender ideas that no longer work for me,
I continue to experience more expansion in my life.
This is an on going thing for I am always growing and expanding.
I stay centered.
I embrace the good in my life.
I praise the good in my life and watch it grow.
This is how it is for me and I love it.
And so it is.

"I've heard it said
that people come into our lives
for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
and we are lead to those
who help us most to grow
if we let them and we help them in return
Well i dont know if i believe that's true
But i know i'm who i am today
because i knew you."

--Wicked, For Good
