Dandelion Wine
A good night sleep, or a ten minute bawl,
or a pint of chocolate ice cream,
or all three together, is good medicine.

While creation and universe organization remain forever under the control of the infinite Creators and their associates, the whole phenomenon proceeds in accordance with an ordained technique and in conformity to the gravity laws of force, energy, and matter.
Be as the Bird in Flight
True goodness is a positive position
A desire is not a condition. The mere desire will never get us anywhere
We have to maintain the desire; we have to stick. to the resolution; we have to exert our will, and cleave to the object of that will throughout . Attachment is by thought
Why do we all have our pet theories of life, our pet religions or philosophies? Because they conform to our own...
My liefste maat
My eidelike man
Hoe kan ek sonder jou gaan
Die wat agter lê
Is agter die rug
Die wat voorlê is ons plug
Loop saam met my
Hou my hand net vas
Al is dit verkeerd of reg
Ons kan beste van vriende saam
Wag vir my daar anderkant
Kyk hoe lêdie gogas daar en wag
Met al hulle voorwaardigheid en prag
Al loop die rivier in die see
En die wolke val hier op die aarde
Sal ons...
"Sophistication"
There is a time in the life of every boy when he for the first time takes the backward view of life. Perhaps that is the moment when he crosses the line into manhood… Ambitions and regrets awake within him… the voices outside of himself whisper a message concerning the limitations of life. From being quite sure of himself and his future he becomes not at all sure… The sadness of...

If you don’t find God in the next person you meet, it is a waste of time looking for him further. —

Hold me in peace while sleeping. Wake me with the sun’s smiling. With pure water slake my thirst. Let me be merry in your love. — Madeleine L’Engle (1918-2007)

title: Little Things Mean A Lot
(Edith Lindeman and Carl Stutz)
Blow me a kiss from across the room
Say I look nice when I’m not
Touch my hair as you pass my chair
Little things mean a lot
Give me your arm as we cross the street
Call me at six on the dot
A line a day when you’re far away
Little things mean a lot
Don’t have to buy me diamonds and pearls
Champagne, sables or such
I never cared much...

Success
To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier...
I love myself…I love you…. I love you….I love myself…
A lover asked his beloved,
Do you love yourself more than you love me?
Beloved replied, I have died to myself and I live for you.
I’ve disappeared from myself and my attributes,
I am present only for you.
I’ve forgotten all my learnings,
but from knowing you I’ve become a scholar.

ExPrEsS
As human beings, I believe our inner nature yearns to express. The form that expression takes varies widely depending on our mood, our lifestyle, our health, our connection with our sense of well-being, and if we give it time and space. Expression may be physical (such as movement or action), emotional (expressing feelings outward), mental (thoughts and stories we tell ourselves or others), or a...
Now
Pure Silence, Inner Peace, Enlightenment, Freedom of Spirit, no matter what term is used, is the gentle enduring freedom you always know in the state when there is no you, no individual, no thoughts about self (including wants and desires), no thoughts about anything, no needs and no becoming. When one has given up the illusion that one is special, one is necessary, one is important, the flood of...
Pure Silence
There is only your heart dancing across the universe, in the echoes of pure silence.
