Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today.
Let us begin.
~ Mother Theresa
Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love , a gift
to that person, a beautiful thing.
~Mother Teresa
Wrong is still wrong if everybody's doing it; right is still right
if nobody's doing it.
~Father Francis Gillespie
I know the plans I have in mind for you-- it is Yahweh who speaks--
plans for peace, not diaster, reserving a future full of hope for you.
~ Jer 29:11
Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own
understanding. Seek His will in all you do, and He will direct your paths.
~ Proverbs 3:6-6
If you give, you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full
measure, pressed down, shaken together ot make room for more, and running over. Whatever measure you use in giving -- large
or small -- it will be used to measure what is given back to you.
~ Luke 6:38
Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and
the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
~ Matthew
7:7-8
Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things
not seen.

It's the heart, afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It's
the dream, afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
Who cannot seem to give
And
the soul, afraid of dying
That never learns to live
~Bette Midler, "The Rose"
Give me a word
Give me a sign
Show me where to look
Tell
me what will I find
Lay me on the ground
Fly me in the sky
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find
Oh,
heaven let your light shine down
Love is in the water
Love is in the air
Show me where to go
Tell me will love be there
Teach me how to speak
Teach me how to share
Teach me where to go
Tell me will love
be there
Oh, heaven let your light shine down
~Collective Soul, "Shine"

"Try to think about times to come
And not about the things that
you've done
If your life was bad to you
Just think what tomorrow will do."
~Fleetwood Mac, "Don't Stop"
"Our attitudes cannot stop our feelings, but they can keep our feelings
from stopping us...Feel your emotions to the fullest. That's being a human being, not a human doing."
~Sean Abbananto
"Positive thinking is how you think about a problem. Enthusiasm is
how you feel about a problem. The two together determine what you do about a problem."
~Norman Vincent Peale
It’s these little things, they can pull you under.
Live
your life filled with joy and wonder.
Yeah, yeah we were altogether
Was lost in our little lives.
Oh, oh, but sweetness
follows.
Trust in your calling, make sure your calling’s true
Think
of others, the others think of you
Silly rule golden words make, practice, practice makes perfect,
Perfect is a fault,
and fault lines change
We are young despite the years we are concern
We are hope
despite the times
All of the sudden, these days
Happy throngs, take this joy wherever, wherever you go
I'm breaking through
I'm bending spoons
I'm keeping flowers
in full bloom
I'm looking for answers from the Great Beyond
If I have a bag of rocks to carry as I go
I just want to hold
my head up high
I don't care what I have to step over
I'm prepared to look you in the eye
Look me in the eye
And
if you see familiarity
Celebrate the contradiction
Help me when I fall to
Walk Unafraid
