POSITIVE VIBE OF THE DAY

You are not happy because you are well. You are well because you are happy. You are not depressed because trouble has come to you, but trouble has come to you because you are depressed. You can change your thoughts and feelings, and then the outer things will come to correspond, and indeed there is no other way of working.

-- Emmet Fox

There are obviously two educations. One should teach us how to make a living and the other how to live.

"Begin the work even though you cannot see the path by which this work can lead to your goal. Do not block your power with your current understanding. Evolution is the process by which the impossible becomes possible through small, accumulating changes.

Concentrate on the direction, not the size of the change. Begin the work with actions that seem tinier than necessary but that are small enough to maintain. The rate of change is slow at first, but do not prematurely judge you efforts. Change happens through spirals; the work grows upon itself. As little changes accumulate, they will reinforce one another and make larger changes possible. Gradually, balances will shift. Enemies that block the way will become allies that lead the way. Where and how this happens cannot be predicted.

You do not work alone. Billions of other living things are doing the work. Your are part of an invisible power. As it grows, the erosive power will fade. Begin the work."

-Paul Krafel

Many people believe that support is something that you give to someone you feel sorry for or that it means propping up someone who would fail unless you were there to give him a boost. But that's not the way I see it. Support is the boost you can give someone who can help himself but who needs a partner to open a window or push aside a roadblock.

-- Dave Thomas, founder of Wendy's

Money is a “way of keeping score in life,” says T. Boone Pickens. Butthat is just for those who like playing the game. The real goal is to live with grace and dignity. You can do that with a small amount of money...or not do it with a fortune.

SI SE PUEDE : BARAK OBAMA MUSIC VIDEO YES WE CAN : SI SE PUEDE : YES WE CAN

------------------------------



I was reluctant to comment on an election, because of the thought that a dedication to "mutual understanding" could become compromised by the appearance of a leaning toward partisan politics.

Tonight, I listened to Mr. Obama's speech, one in a series of presentations of his that have never failed to move me deeply. And, I experience great pleasure to express that, Mr. Obama is talking in the deepest sense, only, about a great need for an increase of "empathy" in our world today. And, that this is the change he asks us to make, that we all feel for one another more, as a first step. And, how this is a non-partisan rhetoric.

It is a rhetoric of a future where the line between Buzz Aldrin's quote, below, which I had adopted a few years back, when I began to develop my philosophy for "mutual understanding" and these paragraphs above and the "maybe" would disappear. And, that we, here, Youand I, would indeed be in: the final frontier of human relationships, one person to another.

And so, since I'm for all that . . . I say, Obama Youand I.

There is in every true woman's heart a spark of heavenly fire, which lies dormant in the broad daylight of prosperity; but which kindles up, and beams and blazes in the dark hour of adversity.

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

Nothing will sustain you more potently than the power to recognize in your humdrum routine, as perhaps it may be thought, the true poetry of life.
