Quote of the day


"One cannot see well except with the heart,
The essential is invisible to the eyes.
It is the time you have spent with your rose
that makes your rose so important"

"That is the hardest thing of all. It is much harder to
judge yourself than to judge others. If you succeed in
judging yourself, it's because you're truly a wise man."

"Language is the source of misunderstandings."

"You risk tears if you let yourself be tamed. "

"People where you live," the little prince said, "grow five
thousand roses in one garden... yet they don't find what
they're looking for..."

"You're lovely, but you're empty," he went on. "One couldn't
die for you. Of course an ordinary passerby would think my
rose looked just like you. But my rose, all on her own, is
more important than you altogether, since she's the one I've
watered. Since she's the one I put under glass. Since she's
the one I sheltered behind a screen. Since she's the one for
whom I killed the caterpillars (except for two or three for
butterflies). Since's she the one I listened to when she
complained, or when she boasted, or even sometimes when she
said nothing at all. Since she's my rose."

~Le Petit Prince- Antoine de Saint Exupéry,

I will not go down under the ground 'Cause somebody tells me that death's coming 'round And I will not carry myself down to die When I go to my grave, my head will be high ~Bob Dylan Do not go gentle into that good night Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way, Do not go gentle into that good night. Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. And you, my father, there on the sad height, Curse, bless me now with your fierce t...

All sunshine and no rain make a Desert

I read an interesting quote "All sunshine and no rain make a Desert" At first glance really not very interesting but it applied rather deeply to life. There has to be some pain and hard times because these are part of love, marriage and commitment. All sunshine and no rain make a Desert. It is through some of the hard times that people/couples grow closer and character develops.

Broken mended

How many times can one heart break? It was never supposed to be this way Look in the mirror, but you find someone you never thought you'd be Oh, but I can still recognize The one I love in your tear stained eyes I know you might not see him now, so lift your eyes to me When you see broken beyond repair I see healing beyond belief When you see too far gone I see one step away from home When you see nothing but damaged goods I see something good in the making I'm not finished yet When you see wounded, I see mended You see your worst mistake But I see the price I paid There's nothing you could ever do, to lose what grace has won So hold on, it's not the end No, this is where love's work begins I'm making all things new And I will make a miracle of you I see my child, my beloved The new creation you're becoming You see the scars from when you fell But I see the stories they will tell You see worthless, I see priceless You see...
