Everything in Nothing..

Children find everything in nothing; men find nothing in everything. ~Giacomo Leopardi, Zibaldone Scelto

We worry...

We worry about what a child will become tomorrow, yet we forget that he is someone today. ~Stacia Tauscher

Celebrate it...

Each day, awakening, are we asked to paint the sky blue? Need we coax the sun to rise or flowers to bloom? Need we teach birds to sing, or children to laugh, or lovers to kiss? No, though we think the world imperfect, it surrounds us each day with its perfections. We are asked only to appreciate them, and to show appreciation by living in peaceful harmony amidst them. The Creator does not ask that we create a perfect world; He asks that we celebrate it. ~Robert Brault, www.robertbrault.com

Darkness to Light...

A sensible man will remember that the eyes may be confused in two ways - by a change from light to darkness or from darkness to light; and he will recognize that the same thing happens to the soul. ~Plato

Your name...

Someone remembers, someone cares;
Your name is whispered in someone’s prayers.
~Author Unknown

Unity....

So powerful is the light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth. ~Bahá'u'lláh

Color..

Color is my day-long obsession, joy and torment. ~Claude Monet

Blazing torches...

The hero is the one who kindles a great light in the world, who sets up blazing torches in the dark streets of life for men to see by. The saint is the man who walks through the dark paths of the world, himself a light. ~Felix Adler

Happy Diwali...!!!

Light gives of itself freely, filling all available space. It does not seek anything in return; it asks not whether you are friend or foe. It gives of itself and is not thereby diminished. ~Michael Strassfeld

The family....

We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together. ~Erma Bombeck
