Thoughts for the day

"Much misconstruction and bitterness are spared to him who thinks naturally upon what he owes to others, rather than on what he ought to expect from them." — Elizabeth de Meulan Guizot, French author (1773-1827).

bumper sticker: Somedays all I want to be is a missing person.

"You never find yourself until you face the truth." — Pearl Bailey, American singer and actress (1918-1990).

"Life is made up of desires that seem big and vital one minute, and little and absurd the next. I guess we get what's best for us in the end." — Alice Caldwell Rice, American humorist (1870-1942).

"To understand another human being you must gain some insight into the conditions which made him what he is."
Margaret Bourke-White, American photojournalist (1904-1971).

Harmony found

After 25 years of wandering and struggling to understand; the alcoholic opened my eyes to a wider world. After telling me I was a natural Taoist and tearing it all apart she left me wandering again - but this time with clearer vision.

Now martial arts and yoga keep the outside in toon and the inside headed the right direction while the family and bands from the cafe build the harmony around which I now wander, in wonder.

can they save your soul? (blog entry) It's against the law
To be a tonic man,
But the widow knows
She's got the upper hand.

You cant raise a caine back up when he's in defeat.

They gave this ploughboy his fortune and fame,
Since that day he ain't been the same.
