Thoughts 18JUN2012

It's not just great teachers that shape your life. Sometimes it's the absence of great teachers ... Being ignored can be just as good for a person as being lauded - Julia Roberts

Maturity is a high price to pay for growing up - Tom Stoppard, Where Are They Now!

We increasingly know things about each other (or think we do) that we should not know, have no right to know, and have a right, actually, not to know - Peggy Noonan, in the Wall Street Journal

THE WISE WAY - Parodoxical Commandments

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centred; Forgive them anyway
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and true enemies; Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years building, someone may destroy overnight; Build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, others may be jealous; Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, people may often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you got anyway.
You see, in the final analysis, it is all between you and GOD; It was never between you and them anyway.
