We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.
Mother Teresa

first to get what you want, and after that to enjoy it.
Only the wisest of mankind has achieved the second.

Alice Walker, American author, The Color Purple:

"The animals of the world exist for their own reasons. They were not made for humans any more than blacks were made for whites, or women for men."

Man is gifted with freedom and intelligence. He can, by indulging his propensities, sink himself to a level with the lower animals or by cultivating intelligently his higher faculties and adopting habits of life conducive thereto, he can rise out of and above the animal instincts; become receptive of the higher nature and eventually enjoy the rapture of the spiritual and celestial life.
~Henry S. Clubb

I had a Client who shared he was at the races in England and sitting across from him and his wife was Winston Churchill. He was so fascinated he watched him through out the races. He shared Winston Churchill had Alzheimer's and of course had a attendant. When I was at our Dream Queen gift shop they had Winston Churchill's scroll as the Dalai Lama's. And of course I purchased both:)

"never never never give up" Winston Churchill

"NEVER GIVE UP - No matter what is going on, never give up. Develop the heart. Too much energy in your country is spend on developing the mind instead of the heart. Be compassionate, not just to your friends, but to everyone. Be compassionate. Work for peace in your heart and in the world. Work for peace, and I say again - Never give up, no matter what is happening. No matter what is going on around you, never give up."
- Dalai Lama

Aloha, patty
