~ QUOTE OF THE DAY ~

Wonderful, Misti! I was hoping you would start a quote of the day thread here.

Thanks Chat., I love yah!

Hi Misti remember me-HIAMA used to be Biggestal0 - nice thread, here's one from the heart :-

"What most people need to learn in life is how to love people and use things, instead of using people and loving things."
--- Anonymous

Hi Biggestal, yes, I remember you ... where have you been?

Great to see you here!

Love your quote, keep 'em coming!

Ok Misti here's another:-

Always remember that the greatest power that has been given to you

by the Holy People is the Power to Choose.

The sacred begins at the tip of your tongue.

Be careful when speaking.

You create the world around you with your words.

~ QUOTE OF THE DAY ~.~ February 12, 2003

"Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above
all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something and that
this thing must be attained."

~ Marie Curie Polish ~ French chemist.


~ There is no passion to be found playing small ~ in settling for a life that is less than
the one you are capable of living. ~
- ~ Nelson Mandela ~

Wow, loved those two. Isn't Nelson Mandela an inspiration for us all.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. - Mark Twain

~ QUOTE OF THE DAY ~.~ February 13, 2003

"The best things in life are nearest: Breath in your nostrils, light in your eyes,
flowers at your feet, duties at your hand, the path of right just before you. Then do not
grasp at the stars, but do life's plain, common work as it comes, certain that daily
duties and daily bread are the sweetest things in life."

~ Robert Louis Stevenson ~


~ Love the moment and the energy of the moment will spread beyond all boundaries. ~ Corita

From the moment I picked up your book until I laid it down, I was convulsed with laughter. Some day I intend reading it.

~ QUOTE OF THE DAY ~.~

"Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking.
It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails."

~Bible~

~ I Corinthians 13:4-8 ~


~ Perfect love is rare indeed - for to be a lover will require that you continually have the subtlety of the very wise, the flexibility of the child, the sensitivity of the artist, the understanding of the philosopher, the acceptance of the saint, the tolerance of the scholar and the fortitude
of the certain. ~

~Leo Buscaglia~

~ QUOTE OF THE DAY ~.~ February 15, 2003

"One finds love not by being loved, but by loving. We can never know love if we try to
draw others to ourselves; nor can we find it by centering our love in them. For love is
infinite; it is never ours to create. We can only channel it from its source in infinity
to all whom we meet."

~ J. Donald Walters ~


~ Don't wait to say the things you mean
Tomorrow may just remain a dream.
We know time changes many a plan,
So show your love while you still can. ~

~ Karen Shaw Matteson ~

Hey, Misti and Al! I am really enjoying the quoes! How are y'all? We just moved from MA to TX and into our first house and we are really enjoying it. Meg is starting to walk!

Hugs - ANR

Hey ANR great to hear from you I used to bump into you on dear diary I recall. You must be proud of Meg .

I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you. I love you not only for what you have made of yourself, but for what you are making of me. I love you for the part of me that you bring out.

~Elizabeth Barrett Browning ~

Wisdom doesn't necessarily come with age. Sometimes age just shows up all by itself.

~Tom Wilson~

Hey ANR, it's so good to see you!

You mean your little girl is walking already? OMG, where did the time go!

I'm delighted to see you've joined A2K, you will enjoy it and we will enjoy your company!

~ QUOTE OF THE DAY ~.~ February 16, 2003

"Spread love everywhere you go: first of all in your own house. Give love to your
children, to your wife or husband, to a next door neighbor.
Let no one ever come to you without leaving better or happier.
Be the living expression of God's kindness;
Kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes,
Kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting."

~ Mother Teresa ~


~ At the touch of love, everything becomes a poem. ~ Plato ~

"We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time."

~ One's destination is never a place, but rather a new way of looking at things. ~ Henry

~ QUOTE OF THE DAY ~.~ February 18, 2003

"We need to teach the next generation of children from day one that they are responsible
for their lives. Mankind's greatest gift, also its greatest curse, is that we have free
choice. We can make our choices
built from love or from fear."

~ Elizabeth Kubler-Ross ~


~ If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we aren't really living. ~ Gail Sheehy ~

~ QUOTE OF THE DAY ~.~ February 19, 2003

"Imagine you are a drop of water in the sea. There are billions of drops, and together
you form an ocean of waves. If there were no drops, there would be no ocean. In light of
this comparison, meditate on your own spirit. You are one among the many, all unique yet
alike in one things: you share the spirit of the One."

~ This is the miracle of life: that each person who heeds himself knows what no scientist
can ever know: who he is. ~ Soren Kierkegaard (1813-1855)
