Sunday


'Come out into the world about you, be it either wide or limited. Sympathize, not in thought only, but in action, with all about you. Make yourself known and felt for something that would be loved and missed, in twenty thousand little ways, if you were to die; then your life will be a happy one, believe me.'

– Charles Dickens (1812-1870)
 Never believe that a few caring people can't change the world. For, indeed, that's all who ever have.'

– Margaret Mead (1901-1978)


Carl Sagan once wrote, 'For small creatures such as we, the vastness is bearable only through love.'"


  ...the infinitude of divine Principle, this One, All, and Only, this indivisible Infinite, within which we are held divinely, from which identity can never lapse, from which it can never be torn apart by a supposed second power. In other words, God's universe is as intact today at the point of perfection within the divine order as it was when "the morning stars sang together."

John Lawrence Sinton

 Each morning upon rising, and each evening before sleeping, give thanks for the life within you and for all life, for the good things the Creator has given you and for the opportunity to grow a little more each day. 
Native American Indian Traditional Code of Ethics

"Love is the recognition of beauty"

A flower doesn't stop being beautiful just because somebody walks by without noticing it, nor does it cease to be fragrant if its scent is taken for granted. The flower just continues to be its glorious self: elegant, graceful, and magnificent.

Dalai Lama
If we make consistent effort, based on proper education, we can
change the world. We are selfish, that’s natural, but we need to be 
wisely selfish, not foolishly selfish. We have to concern ourselves 
more with others’ well-being, that’s the way to be wisely selfish. 
We have the ability to take the long-term benefit into account. I 
think it is possible to make real change in this century.

God is Love.  Can we ask Him to be more?  God is intelligence.  Can we inform the infinite Mind of anything He does not already comprehend?  Do we expect to change perfection?  Shall we plead for more at the open fount, which is pouring forth more than we accept?   Mary Baker Eddy

 Proverbs 24:13,14
My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste: So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul:

The light which shines in the eye is really the light of the heart.
The light which fills the heart is the light of Beloved.

Rumi 

“Develop an interest in life as you see it; the people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself.” - Henry Miller, 1950.
