Thoughts 28OCT2013

ON COURAGE

Courage ... is nothing less than the power of overcome danger, misfortune, fear, injustice, while continuing to affirm inwardly that life with all its sorrows is good; that everything is meaningful even if in a sense beyond our understanding; and that there ids always tomorrow.

Dorothy Thompson (1894-1961) Journalist - cited in "Bits & Pieces"

Mischief comes by the pound and goes away by the ounce - Spanish Proverb

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.
