Thought/s for the Day

[Thai_1_On]

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming... "Wow! What a ride!"

Because he believes in himself,
he doesn't try to convince others.
Because he is content with himself,
he doesn't need others' approval.
Because he accepts himself,
the whole world accepts him.

Look to this day,
For it is life,
The very life of life.

In its brief course lie all
The realities and verities of existence,
The bliss of growth,
The splendor of action,
The glory of power --

For yesterday is but a dream,
And tomorrow is only a vision,
But today, well lived,
Makes every yesterday a dream of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.

Look well, therefore, to this day.

[jingjai]

Guard well within yourself that treasure, kindness.
Know how to give without hesitation, how to lose
without regret, how to acquire without meanness.

How far you go in life depends on you being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and the strong. Because someday in life you will have been all of these.

ANZAC Diggers

"Forgive yourself for past mistakes.
Let them go from your mind...the only place they ever were...
hanging on like gnawing aches that spoil your present experience of life.
Stop imposing the agony on yourself,
and see yourself acting back then as a child...without insight...without maturity.
You have grown since.
The mistakes contributed to that growth.
You would not act the same now.
You cannot change the past...but you can change your thoughts about it.
An attitude is ours to control.
We are the creators.
Change your thoughts and you change your world.

Your mind is your garden...tend it well."

Kristin Zambucka, "Ano Ano The Seed"

What you keep to yourself, you lose.

Thomas Paine once wrote: "The harder the conquest, the more glorious the triumph. 'Tis dearness only that gives everything its value."

"The lives of men who have been always growing are
strewed along their whole course with the things
they have learned to do without."
